It`s not time to make a change just sit down take
it slowly, you`re still young that`s your fault
There`s so much you have to go through
Find a girl settle down if you want you can marry
Look at me I am old but I am happy
All the times that I`ve cried keeping all the 
things I knew inside
It`s hard but it`s harder to ignore it
If they were right I`d agree it`s them
  6    6   6  -6   4    4    -4 5-4 4  4 -4   5
they know not me, now there`s a way   and I know
 -5  5   5  -4  4 3 4     5     6    -5    5
that I have to go away    I   know   I   have   
-4     4
to    go
Play on a harmonica— watch which holes to blow & draw, with sound
