Intro: C5
      C5      F5 - G5 - C5                     E5        
So now I am older                  
                       F5               E5
than my mother and father
                      A5
when they had their daughter
    G5               F5          G5     G5
now what does that say about me?

Oh how could I dream of such a selfless and true love
could I wash my hands of
just looking out for me?

      F5      E5     A5
Oh man what I used to be
E5   G5    E5   A5   F5     G5      G5
Oh  man  oh   my   oh   me
     F5      E5      A5
Oh man what I used to be
E5   G5    E5  A5   F5    G5      G5
Oh  man  oh   my   oh   me

In dearth or in excess 
both the slave and the empress
will return to the dirt, I guess, naked as when they came

i wonder if I'll see any faces above me
or just cracks in the ceiling
nobody else to blame?

Oh man what I used to be
Oh man oh my oh me
Oh man that I used to be
Oh man oh my oh me

INTERLUDE (this part I am less sure about)
F5 A5 G5
Ohhhhhhh
F5 A5 G5 F5 G5
Ohhhhhhhh

Gold teeth and gold jewelry
every piece of your dowry
throw them into the tomb with me
bury them with my name

Unless i have someday
Ran my wandering mind away

Oh man what i used to be
Montezuma to Tripoli
Oh man oh my oh me
