Bob Dylan*
ECrimson C#mflames tied G#mthrough my ears,
rollin' Ahigh and Bmighty Etraps
Countless C#mfire on G#mflaming roads,
using Aideas as my Bmaps
"WC#me'll meet on edG#mges, soon," said I,
Aproud 'neath heated Bbrow.
Ah, but EI was so much Aolder Ethen,
I'm Ayounger Bthan that Enow.
EHalf-wracked C#mprejudice G#mleaped forth,
"A;rip downB all hateE," I screamed
Lies that C#mlife is G#mblack and white,
Aspoke from my skull, I Bdreamed
C#mRomantic facts of G#mmusketeers,
founAdationed deep, someBhow.
Ah, but EI was so much Aolder Ethen,
I'm Ayounger Bthan that Enow.
EGirls' faces C#mformed the G#mforward path,
from Aphony BjealouEsy
To C#mmemorizing G#mpolitics,
of Aancient histoBry
C#mFlung down by corpse eG#mvangelists,
Un Athought of, though, someBhow.
Ah, but EI was so much Aolder Ethen,
I'm Ayounger Bthan that Enow.
A Eself-orC#mdained proG#mfessor's tongue,
too Aserious Bto Efool
Spouted C#mout that liberG#mty,
is just Aequality in Bschool
C#m"EqualityG#m," I spoke the word,
as Aif a wedding Bvow.
Ah, but EI was so much Aolder Ethen,
I'm Ayounger Bthan that Enow.
In a Esoldier's C#mstance, I G#maimed my hand,
at the Amongrel Bdogs who Eteach
Fearing not that C#mI'd become my G#menemy,
in the Ainstant that I Bpreach
My C#mpathway led by conG#mfusion boats,
Amutiny from stern to Bbow.
Ah, but EI was so much Aolder Ethen,
I'm Ayounger Bthan that Enow.
Ah, but EI was so much Aolder Ethen,
I'm Ayounger Bthan that Enow.
Yes, my Eguard stood C#mhard when G#mabstract threats,
too Anoble Bto neEglect
Deceived me C#minto G#mthinking,
I had Asomething to proBtect
EGood and C#mbad, I deG#mfine these terms,
quite Aclear, no doubt, someBhow?
Ah, but EI was so much Aolder Ethen,
I'm Ayounger Bthan that Enow.
