Lyrics

[Intro]
| C/G     | Emaddb9/G | C/G     | Emaddb9/G |
| Dmadd11 | -         | Csus4/A | -         |
| C/G     | Emaddb9/G | C/G     | Emaddb9/G |

[Verse 1]
Dmadd11
                         C/G
When I was young, younger   than before
Emaddb9/G C/G Emaddb9/G
Dmadd11                             C/G
       I never saw the truth hanging   from the door
Emaddb9/G C/G Emaddb9/G

[Chorus]
Em/B A7sus2/B            Em/B A7sus2/B
             And now I'm older
Dmadd11
       see it face to face
Fadd9/C Em/B A7sus2/B            Em/B A7sus2/B
                     And now I'm older
Dmadd11                  C6
       gotta get up clean  the place.

[Interlude]
| C/G     | Emaddb9/G | C/G | Emaddb9/G |
| Dmadd11 | Csus4/A   | C/G | Emaddb9/G |
| C/G     | Emaddb9/G |

[Verse 2]
Dmadd11
                        C/G
And I was green, greener   than the hill
Emaddb9/G C/G Emaddb9/G
Dmadd11                                  C/G
       Where the flowers grew and the sun   shone still
Emaddb9/G C/G Emaddb9/G

[Chorus]
Em/B A7sus2/B           Em/B A7sus2/B
             Now I'm darker
Dmadd11
     than the deepest sea
Fadd9/C Em/B A7sus2/B         Em/B
                     Just hand    me down,
A7sus2/B         Dmadd11            C6
        give me a       place to be.

[Verse 3]
Dmadd11
                                C/G
And I was strong, strong in the sun
Emaddb9/G C/G Emaddb9/G
Dmadd11                              C/G
       I thought I'd see when day is done
Emaddb9/G C/G Emaddb9/G

[Chorus]
Em/B A7sus2/B           Em/B A7sus2/B
             Now I'm weaker
Dmadd11
       than the palest blue
Fadd9/C Em/B A7sus2/B
                     Oh,
  Em/B    A7sus2/B       Dmadd11    C6
so    weak        in this       need  for you.
