Intro/Interlude
Cadd2/ X 2 (Strum each of the chords once except and /G)
Well I've been out walking
I dont do that much talking these days
(Note: Em can also be played instead of those chords, like in Nico's version)
These days--
These days I seem to think a lot
About the things that I forgot
To do for you
And all the times I had the chance to
And I had a lover
It's so hard to risk another these days
These days--
Now if I seem to be afraid
To live the life I have made in song
Well it's just that I've been losing so long
I'll keep on moving
Things are bound to be improving these days
These days--
These days I sit on corner stones
And count the time in quarter tones to ten, my friend
Don't confront me with my failures
I had not forgotten them
Alternate Lyrics (from Nico's Version)
Verse 1 is the same as in Browne's
I've stopped my rambling,
I don't do too much gambling
These days, these days.
These days I seem to think about
How all the changes came about my ways
And I wonder if I'll see another highway.
Verse 3 is the second verse in Browne's
I've stopped my dreaming,
I won't do too much scheming
These days, these days.
These days I sit on corner stones
And count the time in quarter tones to ten.
Please don't confront me with my failures,
I had not forgotten them.
