[Ab]
[Bbm]
[Db] [Ab] [Eb] [Ab]
When I was young and I was in [Db] my day, [Ab]
[Bbm] Sure I'd steal what woman's heart there [Eb] was away,
[Bbm]
[Ab] And I'd sing into the dawning, [Bb] so I'd [Bbm] blaze into the morning,
[Db] Long before I [Eb] was the man you see today.
[Ebm] [Ab]
I was born beneath the star that promised [Db] all, [Fm]
[Bbm] I could live my life without [Eb] Cassandra's call,
[Ab] But the wheel of fortune took me, [Bbm] from the highest point she shook me,
[Db] By the bottle, dear, [Eb] by the bottle I [Ab] should fall.
[Fm] There [Bbm] in the mirror [Eb] [Ab] on the wall, I [Bbm] see the dream is [Eb] fading,
[Fm] [Bbm] From the contender [Eb] to [Ab] the brawl, [Gb] The ring, the rose, the [Ebm] matador, [Eb] reigning.
When
[Ab] [Cm] [Db] [Fm]
[Bbm] [Eb] [Ab] [Eb]
[Ab] I die, I'll die a drunk down on the [Db] street, [Bbm] He will count me out to ten and clear [Eb] the field,
[Ab]
Wrap the starry plow around me, [Bbm] let the piper's air resound me,
[Db] There I rest until [Eb] the lord of love [Ab] I meet.
[Fm] There [Bbm] in the mirror [Eb] [Ab] on the wall, I [Bbm] see the dream is [Eb] fading,
[Fm] From [Bbm] the contender [Eb] [Ab] to the brawl, [Gb] The ring, the rose, the [Ebm] matador, reigning.
[Fm] There [Bbm] in the mirror [Eb] on the [Ab] wall, I [Bbm] see the dream is [Eb] fading,
