A                         A(?)
It's a long time since I saw you last 
A                     A(?)
So tell me how you've been 
Em                  F#m             Bm 
Did you ever get to buy that yellow coat? 
A                     A(?) 
Do the flowers in you window box 
A                         A(?) 
Still smile when you walk in? 
Em               F#m            Bm 
Did you read the letters that I wrote? 

                         G
And I've been on the road since Christmas 
G
But it don't seem so long
A                                   D
Outside of that there isn't much to say. 
G
I cut down on my drinkin' some 
                       Bm   Em 
And wrote another song 
Em                  F#m             Bm 
I wish you wouldn't look at me that way 

A                A(?)
Remember all the mornings 
A                    A(?)
We'd walk around the park 
Em                F#m             Bm 
The nights we babysat for Billy's kids 
A                    A(?) 
And all the times we used to talk 
A                 A(?) 
Of having one ourselves
Em               F#m          Bm 
I don't remember why we never did

       G
Do the neighbors still complain a bit
G
When the music gets too loud? 
A                                       D
Does your old cat still sleep up on the bed? 
G
And do you still walk around 
                                  Bm  Em 
With your head up in the clouds? 
Em               F#m               Bm 
Have you heard a single thing I've said? 

A
It's a two day drive to New York 
G                D 
Guess I'd better go 
Em                   F#m               Bm 
Have you noticed the weather's gettin' cold? 

A                            A(?)
And it's a long time since I saw you last 
A                  A(?)
Tell me how you've been 
Em                  F#m             Bm 
Did you ever get to buy that yellow coat? 
Em                  F#m             Bm 
Did you ever get to buy that yellow coat?
