Then the city approached like a bandit my
G

hands shook as they gripped the wheel

As if I'd always known theres no place like home
G
D
to show you the way that you feel

A rainy afternoon in your bedroom
G

clothes in two piles on the floor
A

One is labelled old couture the other's
D
marked arms for the poor
A
I'm just loitering trying to look helpful
G
D
you offer two corners of the sheet
A
We fold over and over and over again and
G
then in the middle we'll meet

Yet others just like that same Glen Campbell
G

Now right now I'm watching a drummer

haul his drums into a bar

And deep down I'm secretly happy
G
D
that I play the harmonica

And I've more than three ways I empty my days

And your voice sounds just like it's

reading from a birthday telegram

It says "You're looking a little older" and

I say "That's funny because I am"

Last year escaped by the window and this
G

year's going for a song

No, we weren't together forever but

then what the hell does that mean?
A
G
D
the history of mankind or the years since I turned seventeen?
(One persons lifetime,
A
G
D
the history of mankind or the years since you turned seventeen)
Yeah, I was light- headed,
A
G
D
unfettered and I falsely claimed to know the dimensions of love
A
I was prone to wild exageration saying
G
D
things I had no concept of
Verse 8
D
A
Maybe love takes the form of a mountain
G
D
with no choice but forever to linger
A
Maybe love lives in a soap bubble
G

at the mercy of a child's finger
Bm
G
But each with a little rainbow
Bm
A
designed to hypnotise us
D
A
G
And I wouldn't trade one heartbroken minute for a years worth of

Bm

and he's cleaning his head with his paw
D
A
And I know that you're gone so I'm moving on still
G
D
G
I know that you're worth mourning for

G
'cause I know that you're worth mourning for
