[Verse 1]
G G
Now some of us are weak
Em Em7
And some endure
G G
And some people live their life
Em Em7
With a violence that’s pure and clean
G G
But I saw a man cry once
Em Em7
Down on his knees
G G
In the corner of a darkened cell
Em Em7
And his pain meant nothing to me
[Chorus 1]
A G
But I was younger then
A G
And young men never die
A G
When I walked out in the sun
A G
I was strong, clear-minded and blind
G G Em Em7
[Verse 2]
G
Now don’t say a prayer for anyone
Em Em7
It doesn’t do any good
G
Please don’t ask me a question
Em Em7
You'll just be misunderstood
G
And if you could step inside me
Em Em7
You'd feel what hatred brings
G
And if you saw with my eyes
Em Em7
You'd see what self-deception means
[Chorus 2]
A G
I was younger once
A G
And I created a lie
A G
And though my body was strong
A G
I was self-deluded, confident and blind
G G Em Em7
G G Em Em7
[Verse 3]
G G
Now show some pity
Em Em7
For the weak of will
G G
Because when we’re drinking
Em Em7
We can never be filled
G G
Show some understanding
Em Em7
For the lonely fool
G G
Because when I’m drinking
Em Em7
I am out of control
[Chorus 3]
A G
I was never young
A G
Nothing has transpired
A G
But when I look in the mirror
A G
I feel dead, I feel cold,
G G
I am blind
Em Em7
[Outro]
G G Em Em7
I am blind, mmm
G G Em Em7
I am blind, mmm
G G Em Em7
I am blind, mmm
