I'm over the hill, under the bridge

Still a few peaks and valleys, I ain't seen

I don't know any better than to dream

   I know your father's house, it has many rooms
C                               Bb            A   A7
   I see the young men sweeping up with their brooms

Chorus:
Dm            F
   But if you want me
G   F               Dm   F   G   F

     G                   F                  Dm    F   G   F
I've taken huge bites of life and I ate the bones

The gristle and mellow feeds my soul
G                            F                      Dm      F   G   F
Gives me the strength to forgive all the sticks and stones
C                             Bb
   And what you see in me you think I see too
C                            Bb          A   A7
   I didn't get here telling stories for you

Bridge:
C
   I hear a distant cry
E7
   A tear forms in your eye
F
   For the way things might have been
D
   We can't live that again
C
   No time to fill the cup
E7
   No time to screw it up
F
   We'll have to place our bets
G                 A      A7
   On a door with no regrets

Well time won't tell, heaven or hell
G                    F                Dm      F   G   F
Time just pisses his secrets down the street
    Dm                 F
You talk about love, I talk about love
G                   F                     Dm    F   G   F
Sometimes I'll even think we know what we mean
C                             Bb
   No band of angels bringing peace to the streets
C                              Bb          A   A7
   We wear the garments and we shuffle our feet

       I'm over the hill
