When I was a younger man I thought
C D6
the pain of defeat would last forever
G
But now I don't know what it
C D6 Em C
would take to make my heart back down
Em C
Cause I only have to wait a little while
D6 G (Riff)
Before I get my clean slate
G
Then somewhere in another place,
C D6
Who knows? Could be another lifetime
G
Everything we gave away
C D6 Em C
Returns like a seed from a fugitive tree
Em C
And you only have to wait a little while
D6 G (Riff)
Before you find the truth
Em C
Yeah I only had to wait a little while (x3)
D6 G
Before I got my clean slate
Enjoy folks!
