intro RE LA x 3
[verse] D C#m7 Bm7 G A7
It's the sad eyed goodbbye yesterday's moments I'll remember
RE DO#m7 SIm7 SOL LA7
It's the bleak street weak kneed partings I recall
RE DO#
It's the mistier mist, the hazier days
SIm7 LA
The brighter sun, and the easy oles
SOL RE
There's all the more reason for laughing and crying
REmaj7/LA LA
When youre younger and life isnt too hard at all.
RE LA x 2
[w/verse prog.]
It's the fantastic drowse of the afternoon Sundays that bored you to rages
of tears
The unending pleadings to waste all your good times on thoughs of your
middle aged years
It's the vertical hold of the things that youre told
For the everyday hero, it all turns to zero
And theres all the more reason for living or dying
When youre young and your troubles are all very small
RE LA x 2
[break] E G#
Out here on the streets we'd gather and meet
LA DO RE
And scuff up the sidewalks with endlessly restless feet
MI SOL# LA
Half of the time we'd broaden our minds more in the pool halls
DO RE
Than we did in the school halls.
MI SOL#
With the downtown chewing gum bums
LA FA# RE LA
Watching the nightlife, the lights and the fun.
RE LA x 2
[w/verse prog]
I never wanted to be the boy next door, always thought Id be something more
It aint easy for a smalltown boy, it aint easy at all
Thinking it right, doing it wrong, it's easier from an armchair
Waves of alternatives wash over my sleepiness
Have my eggs paoched for breakfast I guess.
D A (reapeat and fade)
I think I'll be Clint Eastwood
Jimi Hendrix, he was good
Let's try William the Conqueror
Now who else do I like?
