Capo 2
[Intro]
G Em
C Am D
[Chorus]
G Em
Yesterday my time was torn
C Am D
Someone told me I was born to lose.
G Em
And in the darkness it appeared
C Am D
to last almost a thousand years as true.
[Verse]
G Em
So in the morning drunk with light
C Am D
I turn my weary one armside to you.
G Em
But little kids and grown up men
C Am D
They’re gonna change and not know how or when or who.
G Em
But babe I thought it would leave me more
C Am D
To stand aside and unlock the door for you.
G Em
But now it's if you can means if you will,
C Am D
and if you will means if you’re still for two.
G Em
Loneliness unlocks each gate
C Am D
Patience whispers you’re too late it’s through.
G Em
And if I was there to keep the score,
C Am D
I’d just be there to feel the sore abuse.
[Chorus]
G Em
Oh yesterday my time was torn
C Am D
Someone told me I was born to lose.
G Em
And in the darkness it appeared
C Am D
to last almost a thousand years as true.
