Intro:  F#m  C#m/E  Dmaj7  C#m7  Dmaj7  C#m7  Bm7 
        F#m  C#m/E  Dmaj7  C#m7  Dmaj7  C#m7  Bm7  C#m7  F#m5 

       F#m       C#m/E   Dmaj7    C#m7   Dmaj7   C#m7   Bm7 
   As far as my eyes can see
              F#m      C#m/E    Dmaj7    C#m7    Dmaj7    C#m7    Bm7 
   There are shadows surrounding me
           Am            E/G# 
   And to those I left behind
      Em/G          D9/F# 
   I wanted you to know
          Dm/F              Am/E 
   You've always shared my deepest thoughts
        B7sus    B7    Esus     E7 
   You follow where I go


Chorus:
      Am    Em/G       F                 Am 
   And oh              when I'm old and wise
    Dm                 Am/C 
   Bitter words mean little to me
    B7sus    B7       Esus       E7 
   Autumn winds will blow right through me
        Am   Em/G    F             Am 
   And someday     in the mist of time
    Dm                Am/C 
   When they asked me if I knew you
        B7sus    B7        Esus   E7      F 
   I'd smile and say you were a friend of mine
            G/F             Em7             Am     Am/G 
   And the sadness would be lifted from my eyes
    F    G/F           A 
   Oh when I'm old and wise


       F#m       C#m/E   Dmaj7    C#m7   Dmaj7   C#m7   Bm7 
   As far as my eyes can see
              F#m      C#m/E    Dmaj7    C#m7    Dmaj7    C#m7    Bm7 
   There are shadows surrounding me
           Am            E/G# 
   And to those I leave behind
         Em/G          D9/F# 
   I want you all to know
             Dm/F              Am/E 
   You've always shared my darkest hours
           B7sus    B7    Esus     E7 
   I'll miss you when I go


Chorus:
      Am    Em/G       F                 Am 
   And oh              when I'm old and wise
    Dm                 Am/C 
   Heavy words that tossed and blew me
       B7sus    B7       Esus       E7 
   Like autumn winds will blow right through me
           Am   Em/G    F             Am 
   And someday        in the mist of time
       Dm                Am/C 
   When they ask you if you knew me
       B7sus    B7     Esus   E7      F 
   Remember that you were a friend of mine
        G/F          Em7             Am     Am/G 
   As the final curtain falls before my eyes
       F    G/F           A 
   Oh when I'm old and wise


      F#m        C#m/E    Dmaj7    C#m7    Dmaj7    C#m7    Bm7    C#m7    F#m5 
   As far as my eyes can see

    F  G/F  Em7  Am  Am/G  F  G/F  A     Repeat And Fade
