G   C   D   Em   D


G                 C        D
ever since I was eight or nine
            C               Em   D
I've been standing on the shoreline

always waitiiing
for something lasting

loose your hunger, you loose your way
get confused and you fade away


Am  G     D
oh this town
 G         D            C
kills you when you are young
oh this town
kills you when you are young

|| G    | C D  | C   | Em D ||



I'm not the boy I used to be
this town has got the youth of me
all eyes turn hollow
from the work of sorrow

Am  G     D
mmmmmmmmmmmmmm
 G         D            C
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm       X2

|| Am G | D    | G D | C C ||

|| Gm   | Bb F | Eb  | Bb F ||       X2
| F  |                           



standing on the paving
by the office building
they've got so much to do
never time for you

G
We are shadows
           D
Oh we're shadows
               Em      C
Shadows in the alley



G
You die when you're young
                    D
You die when you're young
                    Em     C
You die when you're young
