[Verse 1]
G D C Am7
It's not time to make a change, just re-lax, take it easy,
G Em Am D
You're still young, that's your fault, there's so much you have to know,
G D C Am7
Find a girl, settle down, if you want, you can marry,
G Em Am7 D
Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy
[Verse 2]
G Bm7 C Am7 G
I was once like you are now, and I know that it's not easy to be calm,
Em Am7 D G Bm7
When you've found something going on, but take your time, think a lot,
C Am7 G Em
Why, think of everything you've got, for you will still be here to-morrow,
D G C/G G C/G
But your dreams may not
[Verse 3]
G Bm7 C Am7
How can I try to ex-plain? When I do , he turns a-way again!
G Em Am7 D
It's always been the same, the same old story,
G Bm7 C Am7
From the moment I could talk, I was ordered to listen,
G Em D G
Now there's a way, and I know that I have to go away,
D C G C/G G C/G
I know I have to go
