"My Back Pages" ♫ The BYRDS 💖 BOB DYLAN chords
Start Jamming...
[C#m] Crimson [G#m] flames tied through my ears,
[E] Flowing high and mighty trapped.
[C#m] Countless [G#m] fire and flame enrolled,
[A] Using ideas [B] as my map.
[C#m] We'll meet our own edges [G#m] soon, said I,
[A]
Proudly [B] Peter Crow.
Ah, but I was so [E] much older then,
I'm [B] younger than [E] that now.
Half [C#m]-right prejudice [G#m]
leapfrogged,
[E] Ripped [B] down all hate [E] I screamed.
Lies [C#m] that life [G#m] is black and white,
[A] Spoke from my skull [B]
I dreamed.
[C#m] Romantic planks [G#m] of musketeers,
[A] Foundation deep [B]
somehow.
[E] Ah, but I was so much older then,
I'm younger [B] than [E] that now.
[B] [E] In a [C#m] soldier's stance [G#m] I aimed my hand,
[E] At the [B] mongrel dogs [E] who teach.
Fearing that [C#m] I'd become [G#m] my enemy,
[A] In the instant that [B] I preached.
[C#]
Sisters fled [G#m] by confusion boats,
[A]
Mute me from [B] stern to bow.
[E] Ah, but I was so much older then,
I'm younger than that now.

[A] [B]
[E] Ah, but I was so much older then,
I'm younger [B] than [E] that now.
My [C#m] guard stood [G#m] hard when abstract [E] thrifts,
Too [B] noble, too [E] neglect,
Deceived [C#m] me into [G#m] thinking,
[A] I had something to [B] protect.
[C#m]
Good and bad, [G#m] I defined these terms,
[A] Quite clear, no doubt, [B] somehow.
[E] Ah, but I was so much older then,
I'm younger [B] than [E] that now.
