Intro: Em
Verse: 1
Em
Thought I was rid of you once
F Em
For a couple coins on the table
Forgetting when you left that day
F Em
You were young and angry and able
I'd hoped I'd seen the last of you
F Em
No more would I fetch or cower
But when I fed you for a tip that day
F Em
You were young and hungry for power
F Em
Then a chill came on a beam of sun
F Em
Natural as a cancer
F Em
You would never stop 'til all was won
F Em
The young man with all the answers
Instrumental: Em F Em F Em F Em F Em
Verse: 2
Em
That shape of love on every face
F Em
The ghost of loss inside you
Everyone else was just as lost
F Em
And it's sad because you never knew
Now history is on your side
F Em
Who am I to deny it?
A fiefdom for your fragile pride
F Em
And who would dare defy it?
F Em
Then a chill came on a beam of sun
F Em
Natural as a cancer
F Em
You would never stop 'til all was won
F Em
The young man with all the answers
