1           2  3
So now I am older, 
4                  5
Than my mother and father, 
6                   7
When they had their daughter, 
8                   9        10
Now what does that say about me.
1              2    3
Oh how could I dream of, 
4                   5
Such a selfless and true love, 
6                   7
Could I wash my hands of?
8           9       10
Just looking out for me

Chorus: 
D  |---------------------|  finger pick the open strings along 
B  |---------------------|  with this bass line 
F# |----------------2-2-2|  then play the 10th chord from the verse on "me" 
D  |----------------2-2-2|
A  |5-4-2-----4-2-0-2-4-5|
D  |------4-2-------2-2-2|  

Oh man what I used to be
Oh man oh my oh me (x2)

The rest of the verses and choruses follow the same pattern.


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 (x2)

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 
In my underway

Oh man what I used to be
Montezuma to tripoli
Oh man oh my oh me
