Intro 1

Verse 1
C 
Remember thinkin'
a long time ago
G 
When I  get big I'll finally know
D 
What the hell is goin' on
I'll never have to show
G 
how dumb I am again
D 
It's just a matter of time,
you'll be feeling fine
G 
Gonna see the light
D 
Then it'll all fall into place
You won't have to chase your tail
G 
through every hoop in sight
C 
I always see it coming
G 
But somehow it's never really clear
D 
C 
Because like the closest star by far,
D 
G 
D 
C 
D 
G 
it's never really near
C 
They could have told you back in the day
G 
It all comes to pass, it don't come to stay
D 
But they left you to find your way
G 
Through your life alone
D 
So often in the past
You said it's here at last
G 
Here's my cornerstone
D 
You settled in to stay
Then someone tells you
G 
Hey, this is my loaded zone
C 
There'll be time to do it
But you gotta think it through
G 
D 
And now tomorrow's just your grand
C 
D 
G 
D 
C 
D 
G 
plan for yesterday
C 
No, it's never the same
It's like riding the wave
G 
And you're not the flame
They never behave
D 
And it'll be that way
