Key: A

 8*  8*  -8  -8  -7 -7  7*  7* -7  -6*
Out-side the sky is wa-ter col-or grey
 8*   8* -8  -8  -7  -7   7*  7*  -7 -6*
News-pap-er says to look for rain to-day
-8 -8 -7   -7   7* -6* 7* 6
No one a-round for com-pa-ny
-6* -7 7* 7* -6* -6* 6   6
And so I turn to mem-o-ries 
-6*  6  -6*  -3 -4  4*
to pass the time a-way

 8*   8*   -8    -8  -7  7*  -7  -6*
Each face that flash-es back to mind
  8*  8* -8 -8  -7    7*   -7  -6*
Seems as it was un-touched by time
6  -8   -7  -7    7*  -6*  7*   6
I can't re-call quite all the names
 -7  -7  7*  7*  -6*  -6*  7*  6
Each one is prec-ious all the same
-9     -9   9*   9*
How strange to think
-9  -9  9* 9*-8-7  -9   -9   -9    9*  -9  10   
How man-y friends were lost some-where be-hind

  -7   8*  -9  10
Where are they now
 6  6  10   -9    9*  9*  -8
How I miss those com-pan-ions
 6    10    9* -9   -8  9* -9    8*
Who walked the can-yons of the night
7* -8  -7      -7   8*  -9  10
By my side.  Where are they now
  6  6  10 -9 -9  9*  9*  -8
Like so man-y cra-zy danc-ers
6    6  10 -9  9*  9* 9*  -8   9* -9 9*
We live on-ly for the an-swers in a song
-8   -9   8*  8* -6* -7
But that was long a- go
 -99* -8   -7  -7 
Where are they now

 8*   8*  -8  -8  -7   7* -7  -6*
When love was new and won-der-ful
  8*   8* -8  -8  -7  7* -7 -6*
There was no word im-pos-si-ble
 6  -8  -7  -7  7*  -6*  7*   6
The fu-ture we saw with our minds
-7   -7    7*  7* -6*  -6*   7*  6
Was some-thing of our hearts de-sign
-9   -9  9*  9* -9  -9   9* 9*-8-7
Be-tween to-day and yes-ter- day
 -9   -9  -9   9*  -9  10   
Life came be-tween us all

  -7   8*  -9  10
Where are they now
 6  6  10   -9    9*  9*  -8
How I miss those com-pan-ions
 6    10    9* -9   -8  9* -9    8*
Who walked the can-yons of the night
7* -8  -7      -7   8*  -9  10
By my side.  Where are they now
  6  6  10 -9 -9  9*  9*  -8
Like so man-y cra-zy danc-ers
6    6  10 -9  9*  9* 9*  -8   9* -9 9*
We live on-ly for the an-swers in a song

Where are they now
