D                   Gbm            
Crimson flames tied through my ears
G                A      D     G
Rollin' high and mighty traps ■
D                    Gbm          
Pounced with fire on flaming roads
Gmaj7 G     D     Asus4 A
Using ideas as my maps  ■


[Chorus]
Bm7        Bm       Gbm        
We'll meet on edges soon said I
G            Em7    A   
Proud 'neath heated brow
       D             G     D   
Ah but I was so much older then
Em  Em7     A         D   G D
I'm younger than that now ■ ■


[Verse]
                     Gbm         
Halfracked prejudice leaped forth
G            A      D        G
Rip down all hate I screamed ■
D         Bm            Gbm      
Lies that life is black and white
G                     A      
Spoke from my skull I dreamed
Bm                 Gbm       
Romantic flanks of musketeers
G            Em7  A      
Foundationed deep somehow
   D                 G     A    D
Ah but I was so much older then ■
Em7         A         D   G D
I'm younger than that now ■ ■
                        Gbm          
In a soldier's stance I aimed my hand
       G       A        D    
At the mongrel dogs who teach
                           Gbm  
Fearing that I'd become my enemy
       G              A     
In the instant that I preach


[Chorus]
Bm                  Gbm            
My existence led by confusion boats
G           Esus4    A  
Mutiny from stern to bow
   D                 G     A    Bm
Ah but I was so much older then ■ 
G           A         D  
I'm younger than that now

[Verse]
D                   Gbm                  
My guard stood hard when abstract threats
G         A  D      
Too noble to neglect
G D                Gbm     
■ Deceived me into thinking
  G                A      
I had something to protect


[Chorus]
Bm             Gbm               
Good and bad I define these terms
G                    A      
Quite clear no doubt somehow
       D             G     A    D
