C Am Em
Crimson flames tied through my ears
F G *) C
Rollin' high and mighty traps
C Am Em C
Pounced with fire on flaming roads
F Em G *)
Using ideas as my maps
F Am G *) C
"We'll meet on edges, soon," said I
Am F G
Proud 'neath heated brow
C Am C
Ah, but I was so much older then
F G *) C G *)
I'm younger than that now.
C Am Em
Half-cracked prejudice leaped forth
F G *) C
"Rip down all hate," I screamed
C Am Em
Lies that life is black and white
F G *)
Spoke from my skull, I dreamed
Am Em
Romantic facts of musketeers
F G
Foundationed deep, somehow
C Am Em F
Ah, but I was so much older then
G *) C
I'm younger than that now.
Girls' faces formed the forward path
From phony jealousy
To memorizing politics
Of ancient history
Flung down by corpse evangelists
Unthought of, thought, somehow
C F C
Ah, but I was so much older then
F G *) C
I'm younger than that now.
A self-ordained professor's tongue
Too serious to fool
Spouted out that liberty
Is just equality in school
"Equality," I spoke the word
As if a wedding vow
C Am
Ah, but I was so much older then
F G *) C
I'm younger than that now.
In a soldier's stance, I aimed my hand
At the mongrel dogs who teach
Fearing not that I'd become my enemy
In the instant that I preach
Am F C
My existence led by confusion boats
Am Em G *)
Mutiny from stern to bow
C Am F C
Ah, but I was so much older then
G *) C
I'm younger than that now.
Yes, my guard stood hard when abstract threats
Too noble to neglect
Deceived me into thinking
I had something to protect
Good and bad, I define these terms
Quite clear, no doubt, somehow
C Am F C
Ah, but I was so much older then
G *) C
I'm younger than that now.
