Before Growing Old by Keaton Henson
Before Growing Old
Tuning: E A D G B E
Key: G
[Intro]
G
[Verse 1]
G
When you are old and gone away
D
Will you remember me today
Em
With youth still in my eyes
C
And wild hair across my face?
G
When you are old and gone from me
D
Will you remember how I speak
Em
With that confidence of children
C
And that noble lack of sleep?
G
When you're old and someone new
D
Will you think of how my shoes
Am
All tattered, drag themselves beside you
C
As we're walking home from school?
C Em Am
[Bridge]
Em C C Em Am
Been making myself
Em C C Em Am
So sick with the truth
Em C C Em Am
But I realize now
Em C
Our lovе is made of youth
[Chorus]
G D Am
When we grow up
G D Am
I will brеak my promises and you'll fall out of love
G D Am
We will not grow old
C
together
[Verse 2]
G
When you're aged and away
D
Will you think of me the day
Em
That we skipped a day of classes
C
To act like lovers in the rain?
G
And when you're taken by the years
D
Will you recall me thus my dear
Em
A skinny figure at your doorway
C
Legs like spindles, stiff with fear?
G
And when we've up and grown apart
D
Will you remember how the art
Am
Used to fall out of my fingers
C
Into sketchbooks in the park?
C Em Am
[Bridge]
Em C C Em Am
And I'm aging my soul
Em C C Em Am
I'm so high-strung
Em C C Em Am
'Cause I realize now
Em C
This kind of love is for the young
[Chorus]
G D Am
When we grow up
G D Am
I will break my promises and you'll fall out of love
G D Am
We will not grow old
C
together
[Verse 3]
G
And now I'm old and gone away
D
I still remember how your face
Em
Shone with youth and love and confidence
C G
That you would always stay
