( Intro: E B A E A B ) E I spoiled just like wine, left a sour taste in your mouth B You said, it was not that that I changed I just strayed A In the dark of the night E Love is patient and wise, but it's not always kind B when you learn how it leaves, so nimble and lythe, A through fingers like sand, it never lingers, and I'm grating my hands ( Pre Chorus: E B B7 ) A E My patience is waning, I'm growing tired A E In the scorn of the weather, my fickle heart fades, and I can't make the grade, A But I'll graduate gently without stories worth singing, of my own Fm B Just need a little romance, I just need a little time Fm B A E Just need a little young love, to ease my mind E My ears ringing, teeth grind, think I'd be able better off blind B she said, so that I won't picture it A I've yet to grow patient, I've yet to grow kind E Love was patient and wise, but didn't stay through the time B Preoccupied we were, now my smile's breaking A But if I learn to relax all my muscles in vain, float on the waves see if your heart still remains E it's as wide as the ocean B B7 The birds in the sky A E My patience is waning, I'm growing tired A E In the scorn of the weather, my fickle heart fades, and I can't make the grade, A But I'll graduate gently without stories worth singing, of my own Fm B Just need a little romance, I just need a little time Fm B A E Just need a little young love, to ease my mind (Alternate and build between A and E- repeats about ten times) A A7 It's a long way down from the top to the bottom E E7 It's a long way back to a high from where I am Repeat and Jam
