Take a Picture of This Lyrics
by Don Henley
INTRO: D Bm F#m A | D Bm F#m G
VERSE 1:
A long, long time ago, when we were young and pretty
We ruled the world, we stopped the time, we knew it all, we owned this city
Running with the crowd, carefree and proud, I heard somebody say
Take a picture of this, take a picture of this
VERSE 2:
The years went rushing by in the twinkling of an eye, we rolled with the changes
The life we knew was gone, our friends had all moved on, time rearranges
But on our wedding day, they all came back to say, 'Congratulations"
Take a picture of this, take a picture of this
BRIDGE:
Then, we raised a family of our own, we were so happy, baby
But now those kids are grown and gone
INSTURMENTAL: D/A A Gadd9 G
BRIDGE 2:
I gave it everything I had, through the good times and the bad
But now, I'm down here on the floor, 'cause I don't know you anymore
VERSE 3:
Yeah, that's a suitcase, yeah, that's a ticket for a plane
There's no one here to talk to, no reason to remain
When you spend all your time living in the past
With all those pictures that you took, here's one more for the book
Take a picture of this, this is me leaving, take a picture of this, this is me walking away
Take a picture of this, take a picture of this, take a picture of this
