Crimson [C#m] [G#m] flames packed through my ears, [A] blowing [E] high [B] in [E] mighty _ troughs. _ _
[C#m] Countless [G#m] fire and flame enrobed, [A] using ideas [B] as my maps.
_ [C#m] We'll meet our legend [G#m] soon, said I, [A] _
proudly [B] feet aground.
[E] Ah, but I was so [A] much [E] older then, [A] I'm [B] younger than [E] that now. _ _ _
_ _ _ [C#m] Outright prejudice [G#m] _
leaped forth, [A] ripped [B] down all hate [E] I screamed.
_ _ Lies [C#m] that life [G#m] is black and white, [A] spoke from [B] my skull I dreamed.
_ [C#m] Romantic planks [G#m] of _ musketeers, [A] the foundation leaped [B] _
somehow.
[E] Ah, but I was so [A] much [E] older then, [A] I'm younger [B] than [E] that now.
_ _ _ _ _ In a [C#m] soldier's [G#m] stance I ate my hand, [A] like the [B] mongrel dogs [E] who teach.
_ During night [C#m] I'd become [G#m] my enemy, [A] in the instead that [B] I'd preach.
_ _ [C#m] _
Sisters fled [G#m] my confusion, both [A] _
mutinied from the [B] stern debauch.
_ [E] Ah, but I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now. _ _ _ _

_ [E] Ah, but I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now.
_ _ _ _ _ _ My guard [C#m] stood hard [G#m] when abstract threats, [A] too noble [B] to [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, [F#m] I'm [B] younger [E] than that now. _ _ _ _
