As I Get Older

[Intro ]
Am 

 
Am                  C 
Long ago and miles away 
F                            C 
 To be so young and bold and brave 
Am                              C 
 I'm growing strong and full of faith 
                 F 
Dreaming if I'll make it 
                       C 
So save me, Lord, some grace 
 

 
           E7 
So hold me close 
             C 
Don't let me fray 
                 F 
Dreaming if I'll make it 
                       C 
So save me, Lord, some grace 
 

 
G                        F 
 Love gets lost as I get older 
G                       C 
 I lose track of what I need 
G                           F 
 To lay my head down on her shoulder 
G                           C    F    E7 
 To have somebody there for me 
 

 
Am                       C 
 Heed the message on the wall 
F                       C 
 Keep 'em closer as you go 
Am                         C 
 Wipe the dirt up off your clothes 
F                                          C 
 'Cause ain't nothing harder than growing alone 
 

 
           E7 
So hold me close 
             C 
Don't let me fray 
                 F 
Dreaming if I'll make it 
                       C 
So save me, Lord, some grace 

Out-Chorus 
G                        F 
 Love gets lost as I get older 
G                       C 
 I lose track of what I need 
G                           F 
 To lay my head down on her shoulder 
G                           C    F    E7 
 To have somebody there for me
