[Verse 1]
AWhen I was youngeBm7r you knew me C#m7better
But now I'm old and Bmgrey
AI often wonder Bm7about your loC#m7vers
And why they went aBmway
[Pre-Chorus]
F#mSo easily distBmracted
F#mSeldomly in Bmlove
[Chorus]
F#mI don't know if I C#m7want to move slower
BmCause I've learned and because I'm getting olC#m7der
F#mThe devil spoke so I leaned a little C#m7closer
BmFinding truth is like fighting heavy shoulders
[Verse 2]
AYou beg for chanceBm7s, long walks and gC#m7lances
My darling I can't relaBmte
ABelieve the liarBm7s, follow the cC#m7rowd
And regret whilBme we lay
[Pre-Chorus]
F#mSo easily distBmracted
F#mSeldomly in Bmlove
[Chorus]
F#mI don't know if I C#m7want to move slower
BmCause I've learned and because I'm getting olC#m7der
F#mThe devil spoke so I leaned a little C#m7closer
BmFinding truth is like fighting heavy shoulders
[Bridge]
F#mBecause the faithful marksC#m, a very foolish heart
That Bmloses it's own way
F#mIt's always in betweenC#m, the choice of good or mean
I can Bmhardly hold the weight
[Chorus] x2
F#mI don't know if I C#m7want to move slower
BmCause I've learned and because I'm getting olC#m7der
F#mThe devil spoke so I leaned a little C#m7closer
BmFinding truth is like fighting heavy shoulders
