G                      C         G               Em
Well your hair fell on me like I dreamt that it would
       C           D        G
When I dreamt your hair was long
G                      C          G              Em
Through the linens a moment of clearness shown through
       C           D          G
In a minute the clearness was gone

G                    C              G        Em
When to know what I should for my heart to rest
         C              D         G
Doesn't meet with the actions I make
G                  C            G      Em
I will seek the approval of no one but you
     C            D         G 
In love for the changes I take



Bm                 C
The first time we fell for it
G                Em
We blamed it on youth
Bm               C
And now we get hell for it
G                Em
And blame it on truth

C           G
Of mind, oh my
C           G
Of mind, oh my
C           G
Of mind, oh my
