Lyrics & ChordsClick chords to see diagrams
Capo 3, chord names relative to capo.
I like to keep an F bass note (fretted with the thumb) on all the chords except G. In
I play the G and F a little differently than normal. This is how I play all the chords,
I prefer the sound:
Am- 102210
C- 132010
F- 133210
G- 355430

AmYou may tire of me
CAs our December sun is setting
FBecause I'm not who I Gused to be
AmNo longer easy on the eyes
CBut these wrinkles masterfully disFguise
The youthful boy beGlow
Who turned your way and saw
Something he was not looking for
Both a beginning and an end
But now he lives inside
Someone he does not recognize
When he catches his reflection on accident
On the back of a motorbike
With your arms outstretched, trying to take flight
Leaving everything behind
But even at our swiftest speed
We couldn't break from the concrete
And the city where we still reside
And I have learned
That even landlocked lovers yearn
For the sea like navy men
Because now we say goodnight
From our own seperate sides
Like brothers on a hotel bed
Like brothers on a hotel bed
Like brothers on a hotel bed
Like brothers on a hotel bed
You may tire of me
As our December sun is setting
Because I'm not who I used to be
