Mistakes Of My Youth Ukulele

(ver. 1)
Eels
Capo 7

Intro :
F7M/A  Am7  C C7M9/G  F7M/A                   

C Csus2/B  F7M/A G6 x2


C         Csus2/B       F7M/A   
   In the waning days ahead
  G6                       C
I gotta look back down the road
  Csus2/B                F7M/A    G6
I know that it's not too late
C          Csus2/B            F7M/A   
   All the stupid things I've said
    G6                     C
and people I've hurt in my time
  Csus2/B          F7M/A    G6
I hope it's not my fate

Chorus :
F           G       Em        F7M/A
  To keep defeating,   my own self
F           G        E       Am
  and keep repeating,  yesterday
F7M/A   Am7          C       G
      I can't keep defeating myself
F7M/A   Am7          C       G
      I can't keep repeating
       F7M/A       F7M/A
the mistakes of my youth.

C         Csus2/B         F7M/A   
   In the dark of night I might
  G6                   C
be able to make myself think
         Csus2/B        F7M/A    G6
that I'm still a younger man
C               Csus2/B             F7M/A   
   But when the light of day shines down
        G6                   C
there's no way to get around it
    Csus2/B         F7M/A    G6
I'm not the younger man

[Chorus]

F                        G6
  The choice is mine for making 
Em               F7M/A 
  a better road ahead
    F7M/A                 G6
the road that I've been taking
E                 Am
headed for a dead-end

F7M/A          Am7     C       G     F7M/A   F7M/A 
      but it's not too late to turn around

C Csus2/B F7M/A G6  x2


C         Csus2/B       F7M/A   
   In the final moments I 
G6                      C
hope that I know that I tried
   Csus2/B       F7M/A   G6
to do the best I could


Chorus :
F           G       Em        F7M/A
  To stop defeating my own self
F           G        E       Am
  and stop repeating yesterday.
F7M/A   Am7          C       G
      I can't keep defeating myself
F7M/A   Am7          C       G
      I can't keep repeating
       F7M/A       F7M/A
the mistakes of my youth


C Csus2/B F7M/A G6  x8    Fade out
