Age


I've been (D)up and down and 'round and 'round, and (A7)back again,
(G)Been so many places, I can't re(D)member where or (A7)when.
And my (D)only boss was the clock on the wall, and my (A7)only friend
(G)Never really (A7)was a friend at (D)all.

 

I've (Bmin)traded love for pennies, (F#min)sold my soul for less.

Lost my (G)ideals in that (D)long tunnel of (A7)time.

I've been (D)inside out and 'round about and (A7)back and then

(G)Found myself (A7)right back where I (G)star(A7)ted a(D)gain.

 

Once I had myself a million, now I've only got a dime,

The (G)difference don't seem (A7)quite so bad to(D)day.

With a nickle or a million I was searching all the time

For (G)something that I'd (A7)never lost or (G)left be(D)hind.

 

Well I've traded love for pennies, sold my soul for less.

Lost my ideals in that long tunnel of time.

I've turned inside out and 'round about and back and then

Found myself right back where I started again.

Now I'm in my second circle, and I'm heading for the top,
I
(G)learned a lot of (A7)things along the (D)way.
I'll be careful while I'm climbing, 'cause it hurts a lot to drop,
(G)When you're down, (A7)nobody gives a (G)damn(A7) any(D)way.

 

Well I've traded love for pennies, sold my soul for less.

Lost my ideals in that long tunnel of time.

I've been inside out and 'round about and back and then

Found myself right back where I started again.
