	  INTRO.: (E,E4)    
 
                 A musica segue nessa seguencia a baixo  até o fim !!!     
 
 
E        C#m           G#m 
Crimson flames tied through my ears 
 A                 B      E E4 E 
Rollin' high and mighty traps 
              C#m             G#m 
Pounced with fire on flaming roads 
  A                B 
Using ideas as my maps 
      C#m                     G#m 
"We'll meet on edges, soon," said I 
 A                   B 
Proud 'neath heated brow. 
REFRÃO: 
  E               A         E 
Ah, but I was so much older then,  
       A      B        E 
I'm younger than that now.     
 
 
Half-wracked prejudice leaped forth 
"Rip down all hate," I screamed 
Lies that life is black and white 
Spoke from my skull. I dreamed 
Romantic facts of musketeers 
Foundationed deep, somehow. 
Ah, but I was so much older then, 
I'm younger than that now. 
 
Girls' faces formed the forward path 
From phony jealousy 
To memorizing politics 
Of ancient history 
Flung down by corpse evangelists 
Unthought of, though, somehow. 
Ah, but I was so much older then, 
I'm younger than that now. 
 
A self-ordained professor's tongue 
Too serious to fool 
Spouted out that liberty 
Is just equality in school 
"Equality," I spoke the word 
As if a wedding vow. 
Ah, but I was so much older then, 
I'm younger than that now. 
 
In a soldier's stance, I aimed my hand 
At the mongrel dogs who teach 
Fearing not that I'd become my enemy 
In the instant that I preach 
My existence led by confusion boats 
Mutiny from stern to bow. 
Ah, but I was so much older then, 
I'm younger than that now. 
 
Yes, my guard stood hard when abstract threats 
Too noble to neglect 
Deceived me into thinking 
I had something to protect 
Good and bad, I define these terms 
Quite clear, no doubt, somehow. 
Ah, but I was so much older then, 
I'm younger than that now.
