Cause I know that time has numbered my days
F5 Riff 1
And I go along with everything you say

But I write home laughing, look at me now
, F5 Riff 1
The walls of my town they come crumbling down
A5
And my ears hear the call of my unborn sons

And I know their choices color all I've done

But I'll explain it all to the watchman's son
F5
I never lived a year better spent in love Riff 1
