Tom: G
G
I walked back down
C G
The river bend road
Em C G
Gathered up a couple good stones
G
Down to the water
C G
Went looking a load
Em C G G
I wasn't very far from home
G C G
Well I saw my face at the water's edge
Em C G
The man with the heavy heart
G C
Every now and then he feels so close
Em C G G
And every now and then so far
N.C.
Tell me
[Chorus]
G C G
Where did the young man go
Em C G
The one in the water that I used to know
G C G
When did he lose that fight?
Em
Did he just grow old
C G G
Did he just grow tired
[Verse 2]
G C G
The face I saw was a younger man
Em C G
A little more sure of his ways
G C G
Blissful fool didn't understand
Em C G
Hadn't seen enough in his day
G C G
Ten years time and a wiser mind
Em C G
It's seems his world has changed
G C G
Knowing somehow what I didn't know then
Em C G
Would I still have done it the same
N.C.
Tell me
[Chorus]
G C G
Where did the young man go
Em C G
The one in the water that I used to know
G C G
When did he lose that fight?
Em
Did he just grow old
C G D
Did he just grow tired
[Bridge]
D C G D
There was a time that it came easy for a while
C C
I know it couldn't have be that long ago
[Musical Interlude]
G C G Em C G G x4
[Chorus]
G C G
Where did the young man go
Em C G G
The one in the water that I used to know
G C G
When did he lose that fight?
Em
Did he just grow old
C G
Did he just grow tired
G C G
Where did the young man go
Em C G G
The one in the water that I used to know
G C G
When did he lose that fight?
Em
Did he just grow old
C G
Did he just grow tired
G C G
Where did the young man go
Em C G G
The one in the water that I used to know
G C G
When did he lose that fight?
Em
Did he just grow old
C G
Did he just grow tired
[Musical Interlude]
G C G Em C G G x4
