A C
I was never young, even as a child
A
Said I was never young
C
I've always felt beguiled
D A
Oh, I just never smiled
Bbaug Bm
But you have a glow
Dnaj7 G
From an inner sense I'll never know
Because I was never young, even as a boy
No, I was never young
Kindness seemed no ploy to temper or annoy
But you, you have a mind
Full of wonderment I'll never find
Because I was never young
