Silver Harps And Violins

              D
When you were seventeen
G
The years went by so fast
D                A
Now they call you other things
Bmi
And all of the answers
             D
that you’re dreaming of
G
They say that it’s natural
       D                      A
But a grown man learns how to give them up


[Verse 2]
Bmi

Bmi
You had an apartment
       D
and a woman once
G
You paid the electric
         D              A
And the gas and water every month
Bmi
She said that she loved you
         D
And she wore your clothes
G
Now she’s in Dallas
        D                  A
With a stand-up guy and a four year old


[Chorus]
D
There’s a world out there
A
I know there is

               G
Where they’ll play my songs
          D                      A
On their silver harps and their violins
D
If you remember one thing
A
remember this
          G
When the lights came up
          D                  A
There was nothing left that I could give


Bmi  D  G  D  A

[Verse 3]

Bmi
All of your cousins
          D
and your relatives
G                        D              A
Are competent husbands  faithful model citizens
Bmi
You saw them at Christmas
           D
When they laughed and sang
G
They’re so very different
         D                   A
Why the hell can’t you just feel the same


[Chorus]

D
There’s a world out there
A
I know there is
               G
Where they’ll play my songs
          D                      A
On their silver harps and their violins
D
If you remember one thing
A
remember this
          G
When the lights came up
          D                  A
There was nothing left that I could give


[Bridge]
Bmi                        D
Sometimes a vision lights up your mind
G                              D                  A
It's all you were given  like fragile fruit on a fragile vine


[Chorus]

D
There’s a world out there
A
I know there is
               G
Where they’ll play my songs
          D                      A
On their silver harps and their violins
D
If you remember one thing
A
remember this
          G
When the lights came up
          D                  A
There was nothing left that I could give
