We Shall Wear Midnight by Steeleye Span
We Shall Wear Midnight
G D F#m D
You made me older than my years
G A D
I am young and barely grown
G D F#m D
And when I cry, I cry your tears
G A D
for I have no life of my own.
A D G D
Why don't you write me some candlelight
G D A
and wear your heart of gold?
A D G A
and I will wear these Aching, heartbreaking years
A D G A D
'Til one day I shall wear midnight.
G D F#m D
And if you should scream from your darkest dream
G A D
In a whisper you'll hear me call
G D F#m D
And for a while I'll be sweet sixteen
G A D
and I'll have no power at all.
A D G D
Why don't you write me a moonlight night
G D A
and wear your finest hour
A D G A
and I will wear these Aching, heartbreaking years
A D G A D
'Til one day I shall wear midnight.
D G A
I am young, you are old,
A D
but you're not heartless and cold
D G A D
I am warm from the love that you've shown
D G D
but you conjured me up
D A D
from your hat full of dreams
D G A D
and you keep me in a world of your own
A D G D
Why don't you write me a guiding light
G D A
and wear your heart's desire?
A D G A
and I will wear these Aching, heartbreaking years
A D G A D
'Til one day I shall wear midnight.
G D F#m D
And when you lay down on your final word,
G A D
it will be no comfort to me.
G D F#m D
I have lived by the pen and I’ll die by the sword,
G A D
when it’s time to set me free.
A D G D
Why don’t you write me a gallant knight
G D A
and wear your honour and sword
A D G A
and I will wear these Aching, heartbreaking years
A D G A D
'Til one day I shall wear midnight.
A D G A D
One day I shall wear midnight
A D G A D
'Til one day we shall wear midnight.
