E 
Am 
Em 
E 
Well,
Am 
F# 
F#dim 
Em 
we did n't have a nickel
E 
or a dollar or a dime
Em 
Am 
But we didn't mind,
F#dim 
wasn't that a   time?
Em 
And we drank and we drank
till we almost went blind
Am 
Quervo and lime, I went black
F#dim 
Wasn't that, wasn't that the time?
Em 
F# 
And we roared down Hollywood and Vine
Am 
To leather Frankensteins
B 
It's a look that now just
looks so Columbine
Em 
And we swore we'd never compromise
F# 
Am 
On our wills we'd rise
B 
Fully realize the side of crime we'd climb
Em 
B 
Em 
In the capital city of the Philistines
C 
G 
B 
I mean in the capital of
E 
Em 
E 
the Philistines
Em 
We lived in a loft with 20 other guys
Am 
Man, it was a stye
Em 
Wasn't that a time?
When we jumped in
a dumpster just to dine
E 
On whatever we'd find
Em 
Watermelon rind?
E 
That's fine!
Em 
Wasn't that a time?
In the wake of cultural decline
F# 
Am 
On Ronald Reagan's dime
B 
We were living less like men
and more like swine
Em 
E 
F# 
And we swore we'd never compromise
Am 
On our wills we'd rise
B 
Fully realized on Regenstein
we climb
E 
Em 
C 
in the capital city of the Philistines
G 
B 
Em 
I mean in the capital of the Philistines
E 
Em 
Am 
F#dim 
Em 
Am 
F#dim 
E 
We surrendered our souls
Em 
Am 
to the great divine, wo  mankind,
E 
wasn't that a time?
Em 
E 
Mine wrote plays and yours did mime,
Am 
Angeline and Angeline,
F# 
E 
weren't they, weren't they,
Em 
weren't they sublime?
And they quoted Flath and
F# 
Proust and Stein,
Am 
annotated Bodenheim,
B 
but in time my drug -addicted valentine,
Em 
E 
F# 
along with your sweet child of mine,
Am 
left us both behind,
B 
to give the heart and mind to their art.
Well, an art of a kind,
the art of massage
E 
and a bump and grind
Em 
F# 
And I did yours and she did mine,
Am 
laying in touch wine
B 
What a pool of phallic sapphic
monkey shines
Quoting Platt and Bodenheim,
drunk on wine
Almost blind to dumpster diving Frankenstein's
had pre -configured Columbine
C 
G 
And dined on Reagan's dime
B 
Em 
In the capital of the Pillow Steins
C 
G 
B 
I  mean, in the capital city of
E 
the Pylos steams
Em 
We  were young and dumb
and out of our minds
F# 
Sticking our tongue
Bbm 
in anyone we'd find
B 
Wasn't that,
Em 
C 
G 
wasn't that a time?
B 
You
