Twenty Two

"bon voyage" was something that i once said
         Bb           G
and eventually regretted.
                     Bm                      Em
well, it’s come up again...and i wonder if
      Bm                 Bb
the same mistakes i used to make
         Am
could be remade.
                                             G
cause "i've been through this before" well i've said that too.
           C
there's just so much that we can fake
                                        Bm  Bb
before we break ourselves into-two.

twenty two. the years can hardly catch up
             Bb                     G
with the years of playing catch up.
                   C               Em
must there always be a catch?
              Bm               Bb
what we really want is just ahead,
      Am
just over that hill.
                                               Em
and the more i learn, the less i try to climb.
       C
the more we change, the more we wish
                                                          Bm
we stayed the same the more we try to fake ourselves into beliefs:
       Bb
"the grass must be green somewhere!"

twenty two-the years can hardly catch up,
       Bb                     Am
the years are playing catch up.
