A                       Dm     A
See the changes here on every street
A                          Dm        A
As time goes marching to a different beat
A      F
Moving on into the restless age
F                             E
As the kids today find their feet

Young enough to chase our dreams
We were captured by romantic things
Touched by love until it made us cry
How our hearts could fly without wings

Chorus:
	  	  Dm	
Oh won't somebody tell me
C/G		   C            G/B   Am
Tell me where have all the good times gone
Am	  G    Dm7
Say that you remember
C/G		    C   G/B            Am
Remember all those good old Four Tops songs
Am         G    Dm7
Won't somebody tell me
E			      Am
Where have all the good times gone

Stolen moments in the smoky room
Monday mornings that would come too soon
Crazy summers that would never end
When the time was spent loving you
(Yeah we had a good time)

Some things never seem to last
Ain't it funny how we missed the past
Love has changed but the clock still turns
While the flame still burns for you

Chorus

They've gone away
Gone they've gone away
Gone they've gone away
They've gone away

It's hard enough to lose the game
And sad to see it played again
What makes you happy for a while
Is gonna make you smile through the rain

Chorus

They've gone away
Gone they've gone away
Gone they've gone away
They've gone away

Won't you please tell me where have all
the good times gone
