D Cmaj7 G A7

Verse 1:
D                           Cmaj7
I’ve been afflicted by the scorn of young believers
G                       A7
I never meant to go this way
D                      Cmaj7
Have I always been a hopeless romantic?
  G                        A7
Or did I just change one fateful day

Instrumental:
Am7 Fmaj7 Dm F

Verse 2:
Am7                    Fmaj7
So, tell me sweetheart, what’s the story
G                     F
Did you know me back then?
Am7         Fmaj7                     Dm
Was I a mess, did I live in chaos as I do now
          F
Or was I zen?

Verse 3:
Am7                    Fmaj7
So, tell me sweetheart, what’s the story
G                     F
Did you know me back then?
Am7         Fmaj7                     Dm
Was I a mess, did I live in chaos as I do now
          F
Or was I zen?

Instrumental:
G Am Em C

Verse 4:
G                         Am
I know I raise my hands to the sky and lower my voice
            Em                          C
So, I can whisper sweet nothings in yr. ear
G                         Am
But I swear to the sweet lord above I’ve always been this way
          Em                             C
And only just realize how painful it can be

Verse 5:
G                         Am
I know I raise my hands to the sky and lower my voice
            Em                          C
So, I can whisper sweet nothings in yr. ear
G                         Am
But I swear to the sweet lord above I’ve always been this way
          Em                             C
And only just realize how painful it can be
