Kate & Anna McGarrigle - Schooldays [Intro] F C F [Verse 1] In Delaware when I was younger

                 C             F
I would live the life obscene

In the spring I had great hunger

             C            Am
I was Brando, I was Dean

Blaspheming, booted, blue-jeaned baby boy Oh, how I made them turn their heads

                                              C
The townie brownie girls they jumped for joy

                               C7     F      C   F
Begged me, bless them in their beds___

[Verse 2] In Delaware when I was younger

           C               F
I would row upon the lake

In the spring I had great hunger

            C           Am
I was Keats, I was Blake

My pimpled pencil pains I'd bring To frogs who sat entranced

                                      C
My drift-dreamed ditties I would sing

                  C7    F      C   F
The water strider danced

[Verse 3] In Delaware when I was younger

                       C              F
They thought St. Andrew had sufficed

But in the spring I had great hunger

             C            Am
I was Buddha, I was Christ

You wicked wise-men, where's your wonder? You Pharisees, someday will pay

                                   C
See my lightning, hear my thunder

                       C7   F      C   F
I am truth, I know the way____

[Outro] In Delaware when I was younger
