	        INTRO: (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 
       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             C             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 
       Just gazin' at some dragon in the sky. 
       Dm           C               Bb          F 
       What tender days, we had no secrets hid away, 
                  Dm             C            F 
       Well, it seemed about a hundred years ago. 
G Bb Now all my friends are wearing worried smiles, Dm C Bb Living out a dream of what they was. G 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 Bb F Dm C Bb You're gonna kiss and say good-bye, yeah, I warn you. Dm C Bb F Dm C Bb You're gonna kiss and say good-bye, yeah, I warn you. Dm C Bb F Dm C F You're gonna kiss and say good-bye, oh Lord, I warn you, G Bb 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.
