[Verse 1]
D5         E5
  From the coast of gold,
           D5
across the se ven seas,
    E5             D5
I'm travelling on, far and wide,
    C5
But now it seems,
           E5
I'm just a stran ger to my self,
            D5
And all the things I sometimes do,
           C5
it isn n't me but it`s some one else.

[Verse 2]
  E5                 D5
I close my eyes, and think of home,
         E5                     D5
A nother city goes by, in the night,
         C5
Ain't it funny how it is,
          E5
you never miss it til it's gone away,
       D5                               C5
And my heart is lying there and will be til my dying day.

[Chorus]
G5 C5 A5   D5   C5 A5
So    understand
      E5                     D5                  C5
Don't waste your time always searching for those wasted
years,
G5     C5 A5        D5     C5 A5
Face up   make your staand,
    E5             D5            C5
And realise you're living in the golden years.

[Verse 3]
E5
Too much time on my hands,
          D5
I got you on my mind,
      E5                 D5
Can't ease this pain, so easily,
         C5
When you can't find the words to say,
             E5
it's hard to make it through another day,
       D5
And it makes me wanna cry,
             C5
and throw my hands up to the sky.

[Chorus]
G5 C5 A5   D5   C5 A5
So    understand
      E5                     D5                  C5
Don't waste your time always searching for those wasted
years,
G5     C5 A5        D5     C5 A5
Face up   make your staand,
    E5             D5            C5
And realise you're living in the golden years.
