[Am] [G] [A]
[Dm]
Yesterday, when I was young, [G]
[F] I teased at life as [B] if it were a foolish game.
[E] With [Am] evening breeze, I teased a candle flame.
[D] The thousand dreams [Dm] I dreamed, kind of things [G] I feared,
[C]
[F] [Dm] and should be, they could not be.
[E] Only [Am] now I see how the years [Dm] ran away.
Yesterday, I [G] was a really [C] lost, [G] waiting so distant,
[F] so many [Dm] wayward pleasures, playing solely, [E]
and so much [Am] pain.
I'm a big, [Dm]
cracked open bookworm, and even I [G] see an end to
[C] [G] [F]
[Dm] conversations I cannot [E] recall.
It consumed itself [Am] with me, and nothing else at all.
[Bb]
[Am] [G]
[A]
[Dm] Yesterday, you were a [G] fool, and every crazy day, [Em] a fucking bitch.
[F] I used my magic [B] age, and lived through [E] a war.
I never saw [Am] the waste, and emptiness beyond.
[D] The [A] blame of [Dm] love I claimed.
[G] [C]
[G] [F] But with that, and my needle [Dm] seeped, and the [E] nipple came,
time [Am] and again, I used to write the blame.
There are so many [Dm] songs, even if only [G] some.
I sing the bitter [Em] tea, tears upon [F] my tongue.
That song to [Dm] me, to pay for [E] yesterday, when I was
[Dm]
[D] [Dm]
30,
when I [G] was young.
So many lost, waiting to [F] be sown, so many wayward [Dm] pleasures,
playing solely, [E] and so much [Am] pain.
I'm
[Dm] a big, [G] cracked [C] [F] open bookworm, and every [Dm] crazy day, a fucking bitch.
[E]
[Am]
[Dm] I'm a big, cracked open bookworm, and every crazy day, a fucking bitch.
[G] [C]
[G] [F] [Dm]

in the way [D] he moves, [F] attracts me like [Bb] no
[Dm] [C] [G] Something in the way [C] he [Dm] moves me, [C] [Dm] I don't want to leave him [Db] now.

[Bb] [Ab] [C] [D]
[Am] [E] [D] Something in the way he moves, attracts me like no
