Version 1INTRO: (organ arranged for guitar) Dm C Bb F VERSE: Dm C Bb F Went out walkin' through the wood the other day Dm C Bb F And the world was a carpet laid before me Dm C The buds were bursting Bb F And the air smelled sweet and strange Dm Bb F And it seemed about a hundred years ago VERSE: Dm C Bb F Mary and I, we would sit upon a gate, Dm C Bb F Just gazin' at some dragon in the sky. Dm C Bb F What tender days, we had no secrets hid away, Dm Bb F Well, it seemed about a hundred years ago. CHORUS: Bb A Now all my friends are wearing worried smiles, Dm C Bb Living out a dream of what they was. G Bb F Bb F Don't you think it's sometimes wise not to grow up? VERSE: Went out walkin' through the wood the other day, Can't you see the furrows in my forehead? What tender days, we had no secrets hid away, Now it seems about a hundred years ago. CHORUS: Now if you see me drinkin' bad red wine, Don't worry 'bout this man that you love. Don't you think it's sometimes wise not to grow up? VERSE: Dm C Dm C Dm You're gonna kiss and say good-bye, yeah, I warn you. Dm C Dm C Dm You're gonna kiss and say good-bye, yeah, I warn you. Dm C Dm C Dm You're gonna kiss and say good-bye, oh Lord, I warn you, Bb G And please excuse me while I hide away. F Call me lazy bones, Bb Ain't got no time to waste away, F Bb Lazy bones ain't got no time to waste away. G Don't you think, don't you think, Bb F It's just about time to hide away? Bb F Yeah, yeah! Wah, Wah and fade out: Dm C
