#1.
Am7 D7 [tab] GM7 CM7 the taste of life was sweet, as rain upon my tongue, Cm B7 I teased at life, as if it were a foolish game, Em B+ E7 the way the evening breeze may tease a candle flame.
#2.
Am7 D7 The thousand dreams I dreamed, the splendid things I planned, GM7 CM7 I always built, alas, on weak and shifting sand, Cm B7 I lived by night, and shunned the naked light of day, Em B+ E7 and only now, I see, how the years ran away.
#3.
Am7 D7 Yesterday, when I was young, GM7 CM7 so many happy songs were waiting to be sung, Am7 B7 so many wayward pleasures lay in store for me, Em B+ E7 and so much pain, my dazzled eyes refused to see. Am7 D7 I ran so fast that time, and youth at last ran out, GM7 CM7 I never stopped to think, what life, was all about, Am7 B7 and every conversation, I can now recall, Em B+ E7 concerned itself with me, and nothing else at all.
#4.
Am7 D7 Yesterday, the moon was blue, GM7 CM7 and every crazy day, brought something new to do, Cm B7 I used my magic age, as if it were a wand, Em B+ E7 and never saw the waste, and emptiness beyond. Am7 D7 The game of love I played, with arrogance and pride, GM7 CM7 And every flame I lit, too quickly, quickly died, Cm B7 the friends I made, all seemed, somehow, to drift away, Em B+ E7 and only I am left, on stage, to end the play.
#5.
Am7 D7 There are so many songs in me, that won't be sung, GM7 CM7 I feel the bitter taste, of tears upon my tongue, Am7 B7 the time has come for me to pay for yesterday.. Em Am Em when I was young.
