I’m old enough to know that my stars just won’t let go

          Fm                  C#   Cm                Fm                   C#   Cm
At this day and age I can see that the world was meant for me

Some people laugh at what you’re doing, they hold you in the sand

Fm                     C#   Cm                        Fm-C#-Cm
I’m having hard time adjusting to these changes

Ref:

C#                           C
I can see that your lips are moving

          Fm                               C
But I can’t hear what you’re saying

C#            C           C#               C
Is it yes or is it no? Is it stop, or is it go?

C#              C                     C#              C
Is it suck or is it throw? Or is it me or am I just too slow?

Interlude: (do ICP, 4x) (Do stanza chords) I’m young enough to think that the world looks good in pink But as far as I can see that ain’t enough for me Some people hear what you’re saying, they pull you by the strings I’m having troubles taking things day by day Ref 2:

When I see you I see red and green

Cm                                     Fm
You’re like the biggest tree I’ve ever seen

            C#                          D#
But it cuts you down, oh down to size

                C#                              D#
The apple of my eyes is rotting in the ground

C#                     Cm                                    
I see the future burning in their eyes

        Fm                           C# 
but I don’t care what it’s saying

C#            C               C#               C
Is it high or is it low, is it high or is it low

C#              C                    Fm               Cm
Is it sink or is it grow, is it twister, a-he, he-he-hey

Interlude: (Do ICP 4x) Bridge:

Fm (Pause)                                    C (Pause)
I wrote this song while I’m eating beans

Fm (Pause)                                        C (Pause)
Now don’t you try to ask me what that means?

Fm (Pause)                                      C (Pause)
It’s just like asking me to tell you my dreams

Fm (Pause)                          C
I would have told you long ago

                   C#                 D#        
But now it seems you’re far away

                       C#                        D#             Cm
Here comes a loony bin, come to take me away

                  C#                        C        
You put a scar in my twisted face

          C#                                 C        
In the yearbook I look out of place

             C#                                 C        
I see my letter burning in your hand

                C#                     D#    C      Fm-C#-C       
It took me 25 years just to understand
