D                    Cmaj7
This is a song that I wrote when I was young

      Am         G          D      (play the lil' riff here)
and I call it the broken hearted blues

    D                    Cmaj7
The air on that night was tempered like a knife

        Am             G             D   (play the lil' riff here)
and the people wore the face masks of a clown
