Cmaj9              C9
       Where am i going?


      Fmaj7/C
Have I gone to far


       Fm6/C
Have I lost my mind


Cmaj9              C11
     Where are my eyes


          Fmaj7/C
Oh have I seen to much


       Fm/C
Have I lost my touch


C/G          C#/F#         Eb/F         F/Eb
Losing di-   rections from growing in-  fections

Dm7   A/D    Dm7     B+5/C#      B/C#    B-5/C#
Poi  soned   de-      si          ires      of

F#9(13)  F#9+5      F#9      F#9(13)   F/G.........................
rea      ping       life     so        young

F#/Ab.........................B/C#...................................A/B


Cmaj9             Bbmaj7/C
       What will I be    like


         F
When my head is bear


        Fm/C
And my legs are weak

Cmaj9           Bbmaj7/C      C7-9+5                 Fmaj7/C
      Will I be stro-o-ong              or barely    keep alive


         Fm/C
When I'm thirty-five


C/G           C#/F#         Eb/F          F/Eb
Reaching di-  mensions that shatter con-  ventions

Dm7    A/D     Dm7      B+5/C#    B/C#    B-5/C#
Leads   me     to        fear       that    I'm

C7+5+9      C9+5        C7+5-9     C7+5+9
grow         ing        old        too

       G/A                            Gmaj7/A
It's farther from youth and closer to death


        Emaj7/F#
And the things I've realized


           Fmaj7/G
Now beckon me to shut my eyes


           Cmaj9       C11    C7-9+5             Fmaj7/C
And I will grow to the age              of maybe eighty years
