The man who sold the world

E
We passed upon the stairs,
                  Am
Spoken walls and wells,
                  E
Although I was a friend
                C
Sat on walls astrand,
                    G
Which came as so surprised,
                 E                           Am
I spoke into his eyes -- I thought you died alone
                    G
A long long time ago
 
 
Oh no, not me,
   G#                G
We never lost control,
 
The face, to face,
         G#
With the man who sold the world.
 
 
                        E
I laughed and shook his hand,
                  Am
Made my way back home,
                         E
I searched from farther land,
                      C
Years and years I roamed,
                      G
I gazed all gazers there,
                     E                         Am
We walked a million hills -- I must have died alone,
                    G
A long long time ago.
 

 
Who knows, not me,
  G#                G
I never lost control,
 
Your face, to face,
         G#
With the man who sold the world.
 
Repeat second chorus.
