( Intro: E B A E A B )

E                                                   
I spoiled just like wine, left a sour taste in your mouth
B
You said, it was not that that I changed I just strayed
A
In the dark of the night


E
Love is patient and wise, but it's not always kind 
B
when you learn how it leaves, so nimble and lythe, 
A
through fingers like sand, it never lingers, and I'm grating my hands

( Pre Chorus: E B B7 )

A                                      E
My patience is waning, I'm growing tired
A                                                                            E
In the scorn of the weather, my fickle heart fades, and I can't make the grade, 
A
But I'll graduate gently without stories worth singing, of my own
F#m                        B                           B Bb A
Just need a little romance, I just need a little time (time)
A                                               B Bb A E
Just need a little young love, to ease my mind

E
My ears ringing, teeth grind, think I'd be able better off blind
B
she said, so that I won't picture it
A
I've yet to grow patient, I've yet to grow kind

E
Love was patient and wise, but didn't stay through the time
B
Preoccupied we were, now my smile's breaking
A
But if I learn to relax all my muscles in vain, float on the waves see if your heart still remains
E
it's as wide as the ocean
B                B7
The birds in the sky

A                                       E
My patience is waning, I'm growing tired
A                                                                             E
In the scorn of the weather, my fickle heart fades, and I can't make the grade, 
A
But I'll graduate gently without stories worth singing, of my own
F#m                          B                         B Bb A
Just need a little romance, I just need a little time (time)
A                                               B Bb A
Just need a little young love, to ease my mind


(Alternate and build between A and E- repeats about ten times) 


A                      A7
It's a long way down from the top to the bottom
       E                  E7
It's a long way back to a high from where I am
