[Intro]
Dm C F Bb
[Verse 1]
F Dm
Seven odd years and I'm resting my head down,
F Dm
Seven odd years that can't be turned around,
F Dm
Seven odd years and I don't know where to go,
Bb C
I'm still roaming in your woods,
Bb C
I'm still guessing why I never could.
[Verse 2]
F Dm
Seven odd years and I must be going blind,
F Dm
Seven odd years hang heavy on my mind,
Bb C
Like the rolling, of my tears,
Bb C
and the dream where the heart never fears,
Dm
Oh where the heart never fears.
[Chorus]
Gm C Gm C
And I just can't go on, I just can't go on, I just can't go on,
Gm C Gm C
No I just can't go on, I just can't go on, I just can't go on.
[Verse 3]
F Dm
Seven odd years and I must be going blind,
F Dm
Seven odd years and time is on my mind,
Bb C
And the fire beneath the stone,
Bb C
Where your head lies the heart often goes,
Gm
Oh the heart often goes,
Dm
Oh, the heart often goes,
Gm C Gm C Bb
To your life and to our flame and the ghost is crowded,
C C
Like the game I'm playing.
[Verse 4]
F Dm
Seven odd years and I'm living in the past,
F Dm
Seven odd years and time is fading fast,
Bb C
See the writing of your youth,
Bb C
See the whole and the whole cuts right through,
Dm
Oh the whole cuts right through.
[Chorus]
Gm C Gm C
And I just can't go on, I just can't go on, I just can't go on,
Gm C Gm C
No I just can't go on, I just can't go on, I just can't go on.
[Bridge]
Gm Am Bb C
The road I'm taking and the bond I'm breaking anymore
[Verse 5]
F Dm
Seven odd years and meet me down the line
F Dm
Seven odd years and you'd think I'd be doing fine
Bb C
But I'm still roaming in your woods,
Gm
And I'm still guessin’ why,
Am Bb C
I never had anything the way I should.
[Outro]
Dm
