Another Time and Place Lyrics

Another Time and Place chords
Dave Van Ronk 1995 (From Another Time and Place album)
Capo II
When first I met you years ago,
in another time and place
A thought came to my mind,
I'd never seen a kinder face
Or warmer laugh and gentler smile,
(sus4/)
or eyes so full of light
I'd be a fool if I didn't fall
in love with you that night
We've tramped around the world my dear,
our fortune was to roam
But each place that I've been with you,
that place has been my home
If now I wander on alone,
(sus4/)
with no place to abide
I'll be content for I was sent,
those wanderings at your side
Love that blossoms in the night,
can't stand the test of time
It ebbs and flows it comes and goes,
no reason reach nor rhyme
As each day becomes another day,
(sus4/)
each year another year
I'd trade a year in heaven,
for a day with you my dear
The miles flow on and I am gone,
to a wild and empty land
Time is like an empty room,
and space an empty hand
And the things we said and the jokes we made,
(sus4/)
are echoes in the waste
we'll meet again when hills are green,
in another time and place
When first I met you years ago,
in another time and place
A thought came to my mind,
I'd never seen a kinder face
Or warmer laugh and gentler smile,
(sus4/)
or eyes so full of light
I'd be a fool if I didn't fall
in love with you that night
