Gb
We are young we have
years ahead maybe
we might fall in love
Abm
or fall apart
Gb
fall apart
Abm
Before it ends well we
Gb
should try to start
B
So I’ll go
Db7 Gb
But I’m telling you I don’t
B
want to go
B Db7
I could be stuck here and happy
Gb
There’s a puzzle I
work on endlessly
and I’ve got all the sides and all the corners
Abm
But there’s a space
Gb
Oh there’s a space
Abm
Lost some pieces I
Gb
can’t replace
B
So I’ll be
Db7 Gb
But I’m telling you I don’t
B
want to be
B Db7
Just a wasted puzzle piece
Gb
We are old and our son
took the dog away
and fair enough guess we’re
Abm
tired all the time
Gb
all the time
Abm
and you know dogs they need
Gb
ample time outside
B
So I’ll stay
Db7 Gb
But I’m telling you I don’t
B
want to stay
B Db7
So I’ll brace myself against the wall
Gb B
and hope to God that I don’t fall
B Db7
My bones are worn my hip won’t hold
Gb
I used to be so young
B
How did I get so old
B Db7
Won’t you take my cane and hold my hand
Gb B
You’re holding on to all I have
B Db7
just a basket full of memories
Gb B
and I am loosing more each day it seems
B Db7
but if I can make it to the street
Gb
I’ll steal a car or a bike
B
whatever there is to steal
B Db7
and it might get cold I just don’t care
Gb B
I’m going till I’m getting there
B Db7
I’ll ride my steed all through this town
till I...
Gb
have looked
B
till I have found
B Db7
Your peaceful memory
B Db7
Won’t you return to me
B Db7
Won’t you return to me
We are young we have
years ahead maybe
we might fall in love
Abm
or fall apart

fall apart
