   Em                           Am                          Em 
   The choice was mine and mine completely, 
                 C              D                 Am 
    I could have any prize that I desired. 
                Em                    C                      G          Bb 
    I could burn with the splendour of the brightest fire, 
         C           Cm                          Em 
    or else - or else I could choose time. 
  
          Em       - Am                     Em 
2. Remember           I was very young then, 
                C              D                 Am 
    and a year was forever and a day. 
                  Em            C              G          Bb 
    So what use could fifty, sixty, seventy be? 
        C                       Cm                 Em 
    I saw the lights and I was on my way. 
  
             Bb             - Em                    Bb 
    And how I lived!           How they shone ! 
                    C                    - Em 
    But how soon the lights           were gone!
