As I was strolling down the garden path
D C G
I saw a flower glowing in the dark
D C G
It looked so pretty and it was unique
D C G
I had to bend down just to have a peek
[Chorus]
Bm7 Am7
Hello old friend (hello old friend)
C D G
It's really good to see you once again
Bm7
Hello old friend (hello old friend)
C D G
It's really good to see you once again

[Verse 2]
I saw you walking underneath the stars
I couldn't stop 'cause I was in a car
I'm sure the distance wouldn't be too far
If I got out and walked to where you are
[Chorus]
Bm7 Am7
Hello old friend (hello old friend)
C D G
It's really good to see you once again
Bm7
Hello old friend (hello old friend)
C D G
It's really good to see you once again

[Verse 3]
An old man passed me on the street today
I thought I knew him but I couldn't say
I stopped to think if I could place his frame
When he tipped his hat I knew his name
[Chorus] x2
Bm7 Am7
Hello old friend (hello old friend)
C D G
It's really good to see you once again
Bm7
Hello old friend (hello old friend)
C D G
It's really good to see you once again
end on G
