CAPO: 4

(C majorC)  (A minorAm)    (E minorEm)
Crimson flames tied through my ears
    (FF)   (G+G)  (C majorC)
Rolling high and mighty traps
     (A minorAm)  (E minorEm)
Countless fire on flaming roads
   (FF)     (G+G)
Using ideas as my maps
    A minorAm       E minorEm
"We'll meet on edges, soon", said I
FF          G+G
Proud 'neath heated brow
    C majorC       FF   C majorC
Ah, but I was so much older then
  FF    G+G     C majorC
I'm younger than that now

       A minorAm  E minorEm
Half-wracked prejudice leaped forth
   FF    G+G    C majorC
"Rip down all hate", I screamed
     A minorAm   E minorEm
Lies that life is black and white
FF           G+G
Spoke from my skull, I dreamed
 A minorAm       E minorEm
Romantic facts of musketeers
  FF        G+G
Foundation deep, somehow
    C majorC       FF   C majorC
Ah, but I was so much older then
  FF    G+G     C majorC
I'm younger than that now


       A minorAm     E minorEm
Girls' faces formed the forward path
   FF   G+G   C majorC
From phoney jealousy
    A minorAm  E minorEm
To memorizing politics
  FF      G+G
Of ancient history
   A minorAm       E minorEm
Flung down by corpse evangelists
 FF            G+G
Unthought of, though, somehow
    C majorC       FF   C majorC
Ah, but I was so much older then
  FF    G+G     C majorC
I'm younger than that now

    C majorC       FF   C majorC
Ah, but I was so much older then
  FF    G+G     C majorC
I'm younger than that now


        A minorAm    E minorEm
My guard stood hard when abstract threats
  FF   G+G   C majorC
Too noble to neglect
      A minorAm  E minorEm
Deceived me into thinking
   FF        G+G
I had something to protect
C majorC    A minorAm    E minorEm
Good and bad, I define these terms
   FF          G+G
Quite clear, no doubt, somehow
    C majorC       FF   C majorC
Ah, but I was so much older then
  FF    G+G     C majorC
I'm younger than that now

I'm younger than that now
