When I look back

at some of the things that I've done

The battles I've fought, the races I've run

I can't help but think that my
G
D
best is all gone
Em
I'm blessed with a brilliant past
G
D
A
I was barely a boy
G
D
when the rod first set in
A
I was desperate to find an original setting
D
A
But I tried all the old ones
G
so I could begin
D
Em
To build up my brilliant past
G
C
But that's all behind me now,
G
what lies ahead
D
C
How far from tomorrow,
D
G
A
to the day I drop dead
D
A
What sign should I follow,
G
what path should I tread
D
Em
To escape from my brilliant past
D
A
Well I grew up believing
G
D
I could do no harm
It's hard to be humble,
A
and hard to be strong
D
A
So I played the fool,
G
D
and I wrote that song
Em
It's part of my brilliant past,

I once knew a woman
Asus4
G
D
who loved me so well
Maybe I loved her too
A
D
A
It was so hard to tell, to be on the safe side
G
D
A medal I've held,
Em
I'm proud of my brilliant past
Asus4
D
A
And I drifted for years,
G
D
in a permanent daze
With nothing to say,
A
the world was my stage
D
A
So I never stopped talking,
G
D
now you'd be amazed
Em
At the depth of my brilliant past
C
That's all behind me now,
G
D
what lies ahead?
C
How far from tomorrow,
G
A
to the day I drop dead?
D
A
What sign should I follow,
G
what path should I tread
D
Em
To escape from my brilliant past?
D
