CAPO: 4th Fret


[(C)]Crimson[(Am)] flames tied[(Em)] through my ears
Rolling[(F)] high and[(G)] mighty[(C)] traps
Countless[(Am)] fire on[(Em)] flaming roads
Using[(F)] ideas as my[(G)] maps
"We'll [Am]meet on edges, [Em]soon", said I
[F]Proud 'neath heated [G]brow
Ah, but [C]I was so much [F]older [C]then
I'm [F]younger [G]than that [C]now

Half-wracked [Am]preju[Em]dice leaped forth
"Rip [F]down all [G]hate", I [C]screamed
Lies that [Am]life is [Em]black and white
[F]Spoke from my skull, I [G]dreamed
Ro[Am]mantic facts of [Em]musketeers
Foun[F]dation deep, some[G]how
Ah, but [C]I was so much [F]older [C]then
I'm [F]younger [G]than that [C]now

Girls' faces [Am]formed the [Em]forward path
From [F]phoney [G]jealou[C]sy
To memor[Am]izing [Em]politics
Of [F]ancient histo[G]ry
Flung [Am]down by corpse e[Em]vangelists
Un[F]thought of, though, some[G]how
Ah, but [C]I was so much [F]older [C]then
I'm [F]younger [G]than that [C]now

INSTRUMENTAL: C Am Em F G C Am Em F G Am Em F G

Ah, but [C]I was so much [F]older [C]then
I'm [F]younger [G]than that [C]now

My guard stood [Am]hard when [Em]abstract threats
Too [F]noble [G]to neg[C]lect
Deceived me [Am]into [Em]thinking
I had [F]something to pro[G]tect
[C]Good and [Am]bad, I de[Em]fine these terms
Quite [F]clear, no doubt, some[G]how
Ah, but [C]I was so much [F]older [C]then
I'm [F]younger [G]than that [C]now

OUTRO: (## fade to end ##)
