 Intro ??/ ??/ ??/  G/  A/
 Verse 1.:
I  was searchin',  lookin'  for a dream  I had
 All the  wrong answers  in the palm  of my hands
 I was climin',  tryin'  to scale the  wall of truth
 I was swimmin' in  your  fountains  of youth
I'm  a prisoner of  this land
I  don't seem to understand
Colors,  they just  pass me by
All  I want to do  is fly
 Verse 2 and 3 the same as verse 1.
 Chorus 2 and 3 same as Chorus 1.
There's  a longing in  my heart
 For Stories  left untold
As  we remain years  apart
 G A into D of 3rd Verse.
 I am growing old
 The chorus and verse of this song really need two guitars and
 a bass but this is for solo guitar so that you can play the tune
 in your bedroom. This is one of those happy/sad songs that's fun
 to play for people or by yourself. Enjoy it.
