Abm                 F#           E
Which way to the fountain of my youth I wonder
Abm                F#              E
Which way to the years I've let go by
Abm                              F#                E                                    Abm
Let a thirsty man drink in its memories while the water still flows sweet and crystal clear
F#          E    Ebm
For yesteryear
C#m                      B
  Oh to see the sun's eclipse
         F#           C#m 
on the horizon like ships 
                       E
sailing way away from here
         Ebm              C#m 
Oh just one more time my dear
                        B
Before I'll go hear me out
             A              C#m
Cos of this there ain't no doubt
                            B
When it's time for curtain call
       F#                   
Just before the shadows...

Abm          F#          E
Fall like a leaf in the wind on the ocean
    Abm            F#          E
Of blue like your eyes in the twilight theater
       Abm         F#           E
With symphonies playing in the world without sound
       Ebm        C#m
We're given and denied

Abm/F#/E x2

Abm               F#             E
Give me back my innocence cos I wish to dream again
Abm               F#             E
Like I never outgrew my old playground
Abm                               F#                     E                                 Abm
Where the sun sets slowly with a golden crown and the leaves sing lullabies 'round vacant swings
F#              E    Ebm
Give me those wings


C#m               B
Let me fly once again
        F#           C#m
Like I did way back when
                    E
I would gamble and win
           Ebm             C#m
To lift me high above the din
                 B
Of the future we see
         A                 C#m
Does it hold something for me
                 B
I'm weightless again
       F#
Just before the shadows...

Abm          F#          E
Fall like a leaf in the wind on the ocean
    Abm            F#          E
Of blue like your eyes in the twilight theater
       Abm         F#           E
With symphonies playing in the world without sound
       Ebm         E
We're given and denied
