Em                                D                Asus4       
         B           D    Em
My eyes have seen the glory of the sacred wunderkind
                      D            Asus4               B       
   D    Em
You took me behind a disused railway line
                                                       D        Asus4   
                             B           D    Em
And said I know a place where we can go, Where we are not known
                                                        D                       
        Asus4                   B         D
And you told me something that I won?t forget too soon

G               A           G                A
But I can?t believe you?d ever care
C                D             C               D
And this is why you will never care

Em                        Dsus4
These things take time
Em              Asus4
I know that i?m
C
The most inept
         Dsus4
That ever stepped

Em         D          Asus4                   B       
 D   Em
I?m spellbound; by a woman divine
                                            D                Asus4      
          B           D    Em
And the hills are alive with celibate cries
                                                             D                  
                                     Asus4
And I know where you came from, I know where You?re going and i know
                     B           D    Em
where you belong
                          D                                       Asus4 
               B           D
You said I was ill, and you were not wrong

G               A           G                A
But I can?t believe you?d ever care
C                D             C               D
And this is why you will never care
Em                        Dsus4
These things take time
Em              Asus4
I know that i?m

Em        D                    Asus4    B             
                Em
Oh, the alcoholic afternoons When we sat in your room
                    D                Asus4           B         
      D          Em
They meant more to me Than any, any living thing on earth
                         D                 Asus4  B       
            Em
They had more worth Than any living thing on earth
      D                Asus4                 B           D
On earth, on earth, oh ...

Vivid and in your prime
Em                             Asus4
You will leave me behind
C                           Dsus4
You will leave me behind
