C G
Time grows older, my beholder
C G
Your eyes are turning into black coal
C
Your lips are leaking words
G
I never thought I’ve heard
D
Something I would never call my own
C G
There’s color shedding from your skin
C
From the shadow of your face
G
I know another end begins
C G
You try to start a life many miles away from mine
D
And I try my best to stay kind
Chorus
G C
You’re my blood and bones and there’s nothing I can do
G D
You pick me up and knock me down but I still look up to you
C
The color of your skin is changed
G
Your eyes will never look the same
C
your hair grows thicker every day
G C
This doesn’t mean I’m happy with the life you choose
G D
One of these day she’s leaving here and never gonna see you
C
You'd've wish you'd listening
G
To the life that she’s living
C D
Older and like you used to do
G C
Oh to that child’s heart you never knew
