INTRO: (organ arranged for guitar)
REm DO SIb FA
VERSE: Dm C Bb F
Went out walkin' through the wood the other day
REm DO SIb
And the world was a carpet laid before me
REm DO
The buds were bursting
SIb FA
And the air smelled sweet and strange
REm DO FA
And it seemed about a hundred years ago
VERSE:
REm DO SIb FA
Mary and I, we would sit upon a gate,
REm DO SIb
Just gazin' at some dragon in the sky.
REm DO SIb FA
What tender days, we had no secrets hid away,
REm DO FA
Well, it seemed about a hundred years ago.
CHORUS
SOL SIb
Now all my friends are wearing worried smiles,
REm DO SIb
Living out a dream of what they was.
SOL SIb FA
Don't you think it's sometimes wise not to grow up?
VERSE:
Went out walkin' through the wood the other day,
Can't you see the furrows in my forehead?
What tender days, we had no secrets hid away,
Now it seems about a hundred years ago.
CHORUS
Now if you see me drinkin' bad red wine,
Don't worry 'bout this man that you love.
Don't you think it's sometimes wise not to grow up?
VERSE:
REm DO SIb FA REm DO SIb
You're gonna kiss and say good-bye, yeah, I warn you.
REm DO SIb FA REm DO SIb
You're gonna kiss and say good-bye, yeah, I warn you.
REm DO SIb FA REm DO FA
You're gonna kiss and say good-bye, oh Lord, I warn you,
SOL SIb
And please excuse me while I hide away.
FA
Call me lazy bones,
SIb
Ain't got no time to waste away,
FA SIb
Lazy bones ain't got no time to waste away.
SOL
Don't you think, don't you think,
SIb FA
It's just about time to hide away?
SIb FA
Yeah, yeah!
Wah, Wah and fade out.
