wells, 
Although I was a G# 
friend 
Sat on walls astE

Which came as so surH 
prised, 
I spoke into his G#

I thought you died C#mi

A long long time H

We C 
never lost contH 
rol, 
The face, to face, 
With the C 
man who sold the world. 
2. I laughed and shook his hand, 
Made my way back home, 
I searched from farther land, 
Years and years I roamed, 
I gazed all gazers there, 
We walked a million hills 
I must have died alone, 
A long long time ago. 

R: Who knows, not me, 
I never lost control, 
Your face, to face, 
With the man who sold the world. 

R: Who knows, not me, 
I never lost control, 
Your face, to face, 
With the man who sold the world.
