This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

LYRICS

I know your face, I've seen it before

A faded memory, a voice through the door

Tell me your name - are you friend or foe?

A star-crossed lover with nowhere to go

True believer you're an open book

The stalls are empty everywhere you look

So long to a night well spent

You can't remember where the money all went

You only did it for the good times

One of the true believers

I know the pleasure that you live for

Must be the last of the self-deceivers

Let's go dancing in our Sunday clothes

Let's raise a glass to the life we chose

Can't believe after all these years

You're still laughing - it brings me to tears

Sinking slowly - the champagne flowed

I was a child up until you showed

Don't be ashamed - let there be no regrets

For the nights of madness we can't forget

You only did it for the good times

One of the true believers

I know the pleasure that you live for

Must be the last of the self-deceivers

Tell me your name - I'll keep you in mind

A true heart is the hardest to find

I know your face - I've seen it before

A faded memory at the nightclub door

You only did it for the good times

One of the true believers

I know the pleasure that you live for

Must be the last of the self-deceivers

You only did it for the good times

One of the true believers

I know the pleasure that you live for

Must be the last of the self-deceivers
