Modern Times
This is another Al Stewart song that I cannot find on ultimate guitar so I thought I would add it.
I found it on a web site run by Adrie Meijer https://adriemeijerguitartabs.weebly.com/
and claim no credit at all for the tab. All have done is formatted it for this site
and made a minor correction to the lyrics to bring them in line with this you tube version (for which
you will need the Capo on the second fret if you want to play along)  https://youtu.be/Eyyef_GZZNw
[Intro]
Hello old friend what a strange coincidence to find you
It's been fifteen years since we last met but I still recognised you
So call the bar-man over here and let us fill our glasses
And drink a toast to olden times where all our memories lie   
Where all our memories lie.
[Verse 1]
  Do you remember the time when we were young
  Lowly lowly low       
  Outside the window the frosty moonlight hung
  On the midnight snow
  So we pulled our scarves up around our faces in the night
  Huddled on the doorsteps where the fairylights shone bright
  Singing christmas carols while our breath hung in the light
  It all comes back like yesterday         
  It almost seems like yesterday
[Verse 2]
  Do you remember the changes as we grew
 Slowly slowly slow       
  Sneaking in the back way into movies after school
 For the evening show
 Chasing skinny blue jeaned girls across the building site
 Checking out the dance floor while the band played hold me tight
 See the blonde one over there - I bet she'd be alright
 It all comes back like yesterday       
 It almost seems like yesterday.
  While I talked he sat and he never made a sound
  Staring at the glass beside me
  Hey old friend tell me what's on your mind
  Silence grows on you like i-vy i-vy
[Verse 3]
Do you remember the church across the sands
 Holy holy ho         
  You stood outside and planned to travel to the lands
 Where the pilgrims go
 So you packed your world up inside a canvas sack
 Set off down the highway with your rings and Kerouac
 Someone said they saw you in Nepal a long time back
 Tell me why you look away         
 Don't you have a word to say?
[Bridge 1]
  He said I don't remember I don't want to remember
  In fact I've heard too much already
  I don't want to think just leave me here to drink
  Wrapped up in the warmth of New York City
Oh oh it seems you just don't know
And you just don't understand me
Got no use for the tricks of modern times
They tangle all my thoughts like ivy ivy.
[Verse 4]
  So I left him and I went out to the street
  Lowly lowly low      
  Where the red light girls were coming after me
  Forty dollar show
  All across the city's heart the lights were coming on
  The hotel lift softly hummed a Cole Porter song
  If I went to look for him I knew he would be gone
  A picture-card of yesterday        
  A photograph of yesterday
And far off in a deserted part of town
The shadows like a silent army
Flooded out the rooms in pools of blue and brown
 And stuck to all the walls like ivy ivy ivy.
