Verse 1:
Em D
From the coast of gold, across the seven seas,
Em D
I'm travelling on, far and wide,
Cmaj7 Em
But now it seems, I'm just a stranger to myself,
D Cmaj7
And all the things I sometimes do, it isn't me but someone else
Verse 2:
Em D
I close my eyes, and think of home,
Em D
Another city goes by, in the night,
Cmaj7 Em
Ain't it funny how it is, you never miss it til it's gone away,
D Cmaj7
And my heart is lying there and will be til my dying day
Chorus 1:
G C D
So understand
G D C
Don't waste your time always searching for those wasted years,
G C D
Face up, make your stand,
G D C
And realize you're living in the golden years...
Verse 3:
Em D
Too much time on my hands, I got you on my mind,
Em D
Can't ease this pain, so easily,
Cmaj7 Em
When you can't find the words to say, it's hard to make it through another day,
D Cmaj7
And it makes me wanna cry, and throw my hands up to the sky.
Chorus 2:
G C D
So understand
G D C
Don't waste your time always searching for those wasted years,
G C D
Face up, make your stand,
G D C
And realize you're living in the golden years...
(end)
