verses

   E5       C#5         Ab5
(1)crimson flames tied through my ears
(2)half wracked prejudice Leaped forth
(3)in a soldiers stance I aimed my hand
(4)yes my guard stood hard when abstract threats

        A5    B5      E5   E5
rolling high and mighty traps
rip down all hate screamed
at the mongrel dogs who teach
too noble to neglect

E5         #m      Ab5
countless fire on flaming roads
lies that life is black and white
fearing not that id become my enemy
deceived me into thinking

      A5          B5
using ideas as my maps
spoke from my skull i dreamed
in the instant that i preach
i had something to protect

     C#5            Ab5
well meet on edges soon said i
romantic facts flanks of musketeers
my pathway led sisters fled by confusion boats
good and bad i define these terms

A5                   B5
proud beneath heated brow
foundationed deep somehow
mutiny from stern to bow
quite clear no doubt somehow

chorus
      E5             A5     E5
ah but i was so much older then
    A5      B5     E(w/riff 1)
im younger than that now
