then
C Am Em  x4


[Verse 1]
    C                 Am
One day the kids will have a clue
Em
  They can fill you in
C                   Am         Em G
Research would have taken hours


[Verse 2]
C                 Am
Walking backwards just to get
Em
  To your present
C                    Am           G
Where you might find common ground


[Chorus 1]
F         Am           C
  All your  old friends
F          Am       C Am Em C Am Em
  Scared of  the end


[Verse 3]
C          Am                  Em
Maybe I'll write a dissertation
           Em
Or keep it to myself
C                  Am        Em G
Seems it's shorter every year


[Verse 4]
C                  Am
What we're calling generations
Em
  It's almost to the hour
C          Am          G
  Do you remember when?


[Chorus 2]
F        Am          C
  Old man  stay quiet
F         Am
  It's not  your time


[Chorus 3]
C        Am
  Way out  I know
Em       G
  time to let go
C     Am               G
  Who said it lasts forever?
C            Am
  These words  play on
Em          G
  Long since I've gone
C      Am          G
  It's heavy on my soul


[Chorus 4]
F           Am       C
  Last night  I tried
F        Am
  For the  last time


[Chorus 4]
C        Am
  Way out  I know
Em       G
  time to let go
C     Am               G
  Who said it lasts forever?
C            Am
  These words  play on
Em          G
  Long since I've gone
C      Am          G
  It's heavy on my soul
