Lament

Gm         Cm                 Gm
The choice was mine, and mine completely
           Eb      F            Cm
I could've had any prize that I desired
           Gm             Cm              Gm        C#
I could've burnt with the splendor of the brightest fire
   Eb       F#                  Gm
Or else, or else I could choose time

Continues after the ad
  Gm   Cm            Gm
Remember I was very young then
       Eb         F          Cm
And a year was forever and a day
        Gm        Cm            Gm      C#
So what use could fifty, sixty, seventy be?
  Eb                  F#          Gm
I saw the lights, and I was on my way

            C#
And how I lived, how they shone
         Eb        F#         Gm
But how soon the lights were gone.
