 Dm                      F
Once I was seven years old,

go make yourself some friends or youʼll be lonely

 Dm         C        F
It was a big big world,
                A#
but we thought we were bigger.
                            C
Pushing each other to the limits,

we were learning quicker.
 Dm            C
By eleven smoking herb
              F
and drinking burning liquor
 A#                              C
Never rich so we were out to make that steady figure

 Dm                  C    F
Once I was eleven years old,

go get yourself a wife or youʼll be lonely.

 Dm            C          F
Something about the glory,
                       A#
just always seemed to bore me,
                           C
Cause only those I really love

will ever really know me

 Dm                  C    F
Once I was twenty years old,
               A#

before the morning sun, when life was lonely.
 Dm                  C   F A#
Once I was twenty years old
 Dm               C
I only seek my goals,
           F
I donʼt believe in failure.
 A#                           C
Cause I know the smallest voices,

they can making major,
 Dm                   C              F

I hope to see you later.
