Backwards With Time

capo 1st or tune down 1/2 step and capo 2nd

The harp part by Keith:

For notes that are blown I’ll just write the number, for notes that are drawn I’ll write 
before the number. Listen to the song for bends, blended notes etc…

Folk always told me that my heart would grow
                                     
The older the man yeah the stronger the stone
          
Am I losing my mind
                         
Am I growing backwards with time

                                       
Some say with age that our purpose comes clear
   
I see the opposite happening here
   
Are we losing the fight
  
Are we growing backwards with time

                     
I was young and love was fun
                
Now its so serious
                     
Now all my fun has equal pain
                          
Theres something wrong with this

   
For all I know theres more I don’t
  
Oh the little I have learned
   
For every year of knowledge gained
  
Is a negative year ive earned

   
Folk always told me that my heart would grow
   
The older the man yeah the stronger the stone
   
Am I losing my mind
