D	c  g (4 times)
D	   c 	  g
When I was a boy I never felt the weight I’m
feeling
D	  c		 g
I had a crowd around me and that was that
D		 c		   g
I’d get on the bus and go to the ata every
weekend
D	    c	  g
And feel the ultraviolet show the fluff up on my
collar
D 	  c		 g	d	c  g
Yeah	 (horns)		 (bass)

They’d play otis redding sam and dave and wilson
pickett
Prince buster the skatelites and the bees would
be buzzing their horns
The boys would dance like robots the girls would
walk a fashionable slink

Em 				bm
Now here I am like some old man trying to recall
the way the way it was
Em				 bm
Then suddenly that boy is me and I’m right back
there once again

Chorus
D  c	g		d  c g
Soultime	 I’m in soultime
D		 c	    g   d    c  g
Oh yeah	 (horns)		 (bass)

D		 c	   g   d	   c	 g
(horns)		  (bass)

We never tried to change the world	it didn’t need
changing
We were the in crowd yeah and that was that
Graduating from a lambretta to a triumph herald
car
Was the only future in sight oh and that was
that
D 	   c		 g	 d	 c  g
(horns) 		(bass)

One night there was a rumble and I got head
butted yeah
But those boys could not take that girl away from
me
I took a handkerchief and wiped the blood way
from my nose
And got right back on the dance floor and that
was that

Bridge
Now here we are one or two scars trying to recall
the way the way it was
But now I know where I am coming from oooh yeah I
say

Chorus
Soultime 	i’m in soultime
Soultime	 oooh yeah  ooh yeah	 (bass) (funky
section over d and bm)
Chorus
Oooh yeah soultime   oooh yeah soultime  (fade)
