I Saw My Youth Today
CAPO: 2nd Fret
INTRO: Em C G D (2x) Em
C G
I saw my youth today
D Em
He passed me on the street
C
As he walked by I stood frozen
G D Em
On my dreaming feet
C G
He had a kinder face
D Em
The kind I've learned to hide
C G
Behind these cold unyielding stones
D G
That used to be my eyes
D C
A moment please, my boy
G D C
Don't you know my name?
G D
Do you remember when
Em G C
We used to play a hundred games?
G D C
Is your mother well?
G D C
Kiss her once for me
G D
And if she should ask you why
Em D C
You could say, "Just for no reason"
INSTRUMENTAL: Em C G D (4x) Em
C G
Remember that old troll
D Em
That lived inside the tree?
C
He was never dangerous
G D Em
That's just the way it seemed
C G
The day you climbed the tree
D Em
And ran to show me how
C G
The troll was never seen again
D G
So where could he be now?
D C
A moment please my boy
G D C
Don't you know this face?
G D
Do you remember when
Em D C
I used to let you win the races?
G D C
Please don't run away
G D C
I did not mean to scare you
G D
I'm the one who told you
Em D C
That you should never talk to strangers
G D C
Is your mother well?
G D C
Kiss her once for me
G D
And if she should ask you why
Em C D Em
You could say, "Just for no reason"
C G
I saw my youth today
D Em
He passed me on the street
C
As he walked by I stood frozen
G D
On my dreaming feet
