You made me olde[G]r than my ye[D]ars[F#m][D]
I am [G]young [A]and barely [D]grown
[G]And when I [D]cry, I [F#m]cry your [D]tears
for I [G]have no [A]life of my [D]own.
[A]Why don't you [D]write me some[G] candle[D]light
[G]and wear your [D]heart of [A]gold?
[A]and I will [D]wear these [G]Aching, heartbreaking [A]years
[A]'Til one d[D]ay I[G] shall wear m[A]idnight.[D]
[G]And if you should [D]scream from your [F#m]darkest [D]dream
In a [G]whisper [A]you'll hear me [D]call
[G]And for a w[D]hile I'll be [F#m]sweet [D]sixteen
and I'll [G]have no [A]power at [D]all.
[A]Why don't you [D]write me a [G]moonlight [D]night
[G]and wear your [D]finest [A]hour
[A]and I will [D]wear these [G]Aching, heartbreaking [A]years
[A]'Til one d[D]ay I[G] shall wear m[A]idnight.[D]
[D]I am [G]young, you are [A]old,
[A]but you're not heartless and [D]cold
[D]I am [G]warm from the [A]love that you've [D]shown
[D]but you [G]conjured me[D] up
[D]from your [A]hat full of [D]dreams
[D]and you [G]keep me in a [A]world of your [D]own
[A]Why don't you [D]write me a [G]guiding [D]light
[G]and wear your [D]heart's[A] desire?
[A]and I will [D]wear these [G]Aching, heartbreaking [A]years
[A]'Til one d[D]ay I[G] shall wear m[A]idnight.[D]
[G]And when you lay d[D]own on your [F#m]final [D]word,
it will [G]be no c[A]omfort to [D]me.
[G]I have lived by the [D]pen and I?ll [F#m]die by the [D]sword,
when it?s [G]time to [A]set me [D]free.
[A]Why don?t you [D]write me a [G]gallant [D]knight
[G]and wear your [D]honour and [A]sword
[A]and I will [D]wear these [G]Aching, heartbreaking [A]years
[A]'Til one d[D]ay I[G] shall wear m[A]idnight.[D]
[A]One [D]day [G]I shall wear [A]midnight[D]
[A]'Til one d[D]ay w[G]e shall wear [A]midnight[D].
