_ _ It's [F#] a day _ _
_ [C#] when I was [G#] young _ The taste of life was [C#m] sweet
As rain upon my tongue _ I teased [A] at life as if it were
_ A foolish [B] game _ The way the evening [Em] breeze
Made tears a candle flame _ _ The [E] thousand dreams I [F#] dreamed
_ The splendid things [G#m] I planned I [C#m] always spilled the last
On weekend shifting sand _ I lived by [F#m] night and shunned
The naked [C#] light of [G#m] day _ And only [E] now I see
[B]
[Em] How the years have ran _ away _
_ _ [F#m] It's a day _ _ _ when I [G#m] was young _ So many drinking [C#m] songs
Were waiting [A] to be sung _ So many [F#m] _ wayward _ pleasures
Lay in store [G#] for me And so much [C#m] pain my dazzled _ [E]
eyes
_ Refused to see _ I ran so [F#m] fast that time _
And youth at [G#m] last ran out I never stopped [C#m] to think
What life [A#] was all [A] about _ And every [F#m] _ conversation _
I can now [G#] recall _ _ _ Concerned itself [C#m] with me
_ [E]
And nothing else at _ _ all
_ _ It's [F#m] a day _ _ the moon was [G#m] blue _ And every crazy [C#m] day
Brought something new to [A] do _ I used my magic [F#m] age _
As if it [G#m] were a want _ _ And never [C#m] so late
[E] An emptiness _ beyond _ _ The game of [F#m] love I played
_ With [G#m] arrogance and pride _ And every flame I [C#m] lit
To quickly, quickly [F#m] die [A] _
The _ friends I made all [F#m]
seemed
[C#] Somehow to [G#m] drift away _ _ And only [E] I'm left
On stage to end the play _ There are [F#] so many _ songs
[C#] [A] In me that [G#m] won't be sung _ I feel the [C#m] bitter taste
Of tears upon my tongue _ _ The time [A] has come for me to pay
For [G#m] yesterday _ _ _
[C#] When [D#] I was young _
