Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[G]Back when I was young,
fresh as grass and innocent
[C]Any day I'd [G]fly away on butterfly [C]wings[G]
If my soup was cold,
the meat they served me
wasn't succulent
[C]Bucket went, it's [G]worth the wait
for nicer [C]thing[G]s
[D]Birdsong up above,
[G]pus[C]h con[D]s to shock[C]
Soon you fall down from [Em]the grandstand
An[C]d join the players in t[Em]he band
[D]Toodle out that melody,
[C]wit[D], wit and see[C]
And then it's all down
[Em]hill[C][Em][D][G][D][G]
But within a year
I would [C]eat what I was [G]served
I [C]learned to smile [G]an d take
your [C]medicine[G]
I'd accepted that I only get
the [C]shit that I deserved
[G]On my ars[C]e or on my kne[G]es,
I took it with [C]a grin[G]
[D]Birdsong up above
[C]Pus[D]h comes to sho[C]ve
See you fall down from the [Em]grandstand
[C]And join the players in [Em]the band
[D]To a black [G]melody
[C]Wai[D]t, wait and see
[C]An d then it's all done [Em]to hell
[C]If all it was God's [Em]will,
[D]never let it [G]be[D][G]
When he forgot, no one planned a skill,
highest peak
Off they [C]go, the starry [G]sky [C]ove[G]rhead
Stone by stone you climb,
but your efforts leave you
worn and weak
[C]Broken down,
you barely [G]make it back to bed
[D]From that god of love
Wish comes to [C]shove
Soon you've all gone
from [Em]the grandstand
An[C]d joined the players in the b[Em]and
[D]To love that melody
[C]With [D]wind and sea[C]
And then it goes downhill
[Em]Who [C]knows it's just God's will[Em],
[D]destiny to [G]be[D][G]
Bet[D]ter leave it [G]be

[Outro 1]
[G][D][G]
