[Intro]GEmGmaj7EmGEmGmaj7Em[Verse 1]GEm
A thousand conversations
Gmaj7Em
on a never ending theme
FBb
Seem to linger in my mind
Am7DDsusD
like the fragments of a dream
GEm
That was once a part of you
Gmaj7Em
and remains a part of me
FD
Its the unreal world we lived
Am
in that was born of
DGEmGmaj7Em
fantasy
[Verse 2]GEm
You whiled away the hours,
Gmaj7Em
making promises that might
F
Have just changed the world we
BbAm
knew, if theyd only turned out
DDsusD
right
GEm
But now I'm a little wise
Gmaj7Em
I can even raise a laugh
FD
At the funny face you pulled on
AmDGEmGmaj7Em
a faded photograph
[Chorus]Cmaj7BmB
New days replace yesterdays
Em
in time
BmBEm
Its well to bear in mind
Cmaj7
That new ways erase
BmBEm
Nothing stays the same
CAm
And now you've even changed
FDsusD
your name..........
[Interlude]GEmGmaj7Em[Verse 3]GEm
Forever I'll remember as
Gmaj7Em
I pass by on the train
FBb
Streets of paradise we loved
AmDDsusD
Now so few of them remain
GEm
Guess its finally goodbye
Gmaj7Em
Seems we came so suddenly
FD
To the end of childhood days
AmDG
And the way things used to be
[Outro]EmGmaj7EmG
Mmmm..

How to play A Thousand Conversations: key, chords and progression
A Thousand Conversations by Marvin, Welch & Farrar is built around G major (one sharp: F♯), with 13 chords in all: G, Em, Gmaj7, F, Bb, Am7, D, Dsus, Am, Cmaj7, Bm and B and 1 more.
Most of the song cycles through G – Em – Gmaj7 – Em (I – vi – Imaj7 – vi in G major). In solfa, that is doh – lah – doh – lah. Get these 4 changes smooth and the rest comes quickly.
Good to know: on guitar, F, Bb, Bm and B need a barre or movable shape. Take the change into them slowly at first; piano and ukulele players have it easier.
