[Intro]
[Verse 1]
When I was you
ng, younger th
an before
I never saw th
e truth hangin
g from the doo
r
And now I'm ol
der see it fac
e to face
And now I'm ol
der gotta get
up clean the p
lace
[Verse 2]
And I was green, greener than the hill
Where flowers grow and the sun shone still
Now I'm darker than the deepest sea
Just hand me down, give me place to be
[Verse 3]
And I was strong, strong in the sun
I thought I'd see when day was done
Now I'm weaker than the palest blue
Oh so weak in this need for you

NOTE: While playing D, constantly hammer on and off the second fret note
of the G string. With Em/F#, the second fret note of the lowest D string
is hammered on, then the second fret note of the A string is often
hammered on too. There is much more going on in this song, particularly
the solo, but I figured something is better than nothing. Maybe I'll get
back and do a more detailed version one of these days- anyone else who
wants to try is very welcome to.
