So now I am older
F Em
than my mother and father
Am
when they had their daughter
G F G G7
now what does that say about me?
Oh how could I dream of such a selfless and true love
could I wash my hands of
just looking out for me?
F Em Am
Oh man what I used to be
Em G Em Am F G G7
Oh man oh my oh me
F Em Am
Oh man what I used to be
Em G Em Am F G G7
Oh man oh my oh me
In dearth or in excess
both the slave and the empress
will return to the dirt, I guess, naked as when they came
i wonder if I'll see any faces above me
or just cracks in the ceiling
nobody else to blame?
Oh man what I used to be
Oh man oh my oh me
Oh man that I used to be
Oh man oh my oh me
INTERLUDE (this part I am less sure about)
F Am G
Ohhhhhhh
F Am G F G
Ohhhhhhhh
Gold teeth and gold jewelry
every piece of your dowry
throw them into the tomb with me
bury them with my name
Unless i have someday
Ran my wandering mind away
Oh man what i used to be
Montezuma to Tripoli
Oh man oh my oh me
