I remember we were standing on a street in the rain

  [g#m] [f#m]

Downtown where none of us will be able to afford to live again

  [f#m] [g#m]

You were looking for some cigarettes in your purse and you cursed

  [g#m] [f#m]

And I fell in love to the sound of that obscene and lovely word

  [f#m] [g#m]

You were older, you were vicious, I was young and not suspicious

  [g#m] [f#m]

That I was being f**ked around

  [f#m] [g#m] [g#m] [f#m]

I was I was I won't I don't want to talk about this now

 Until you see my face ten years don't seem like a long time

  [f#m] [f#m] [g#m] [g#m] [f#m]

But I'm older now than you were then when I was your younger man

[f#m] [g#m] [g#m] [f#m] (horns)

  [f#m] [g#m]

I remember we were running from who you left before me

  [g#m] [f#m]

I remember being dumb and drunk and happy

  [f#m] [g#m]

I remember you squinting as the smoke got in your eyes

  [g#m] [f#m]

And being ID'd following you into bars while you stalked other guys

 Until you see my face ten years don't seem like a long time

  [f#m]

But I'm older now than you were then when I, when I . . .

ba da ba da...

  [f#m] [g#m]

Everyone said it would end badly, it took a while but it did

  [g#m] [f#m]

And I hung my head sadly and got used to it

  [f#m] [g#m]

I'll see you at some funeral you know I've got a few in mind

  [g#m] [f#m]

We'll be fighting but I'll be smiling because remember that time

  [c#m] [c#m] [g#m]

I saw your face and thought ten years ain't such a long time

  [f#m]

Oh I'm older now than you were then when I...

 When I saw your face and thought ten years ain't such a long time

  [f#]

But I'm older now than you were then when I was

[f#m] [g#m] [g#m] [f#m]

your younger man your younger ah your younger man

[f#m] [g#] [g#] [f#]

your younger man your younger, ah, your younger man
