This Is The Age

[Verse]
Em           C            G     
They say a king ain’t a king 
           B         Em
without his rubies and gold
             C                 G  
But I know kings with little 
        B                   Em
things and by god does he have it 
all
            C             G       
It’s not in dimes that defines the
      B                     Em
 way a man should show his love
          C           B
Take the time to read between the 
lines

[Pre]
         C
Because Rome wasn’t built in a day
       B
And patience is the only way


[Chorus]
            Em         C          
This is the age of the lost and 
  G
the found
                 Em      C        
And now raise a glass to those who
           G
 choose to live without
                  Em         C    
And don’t need no king for a 
       G
castle or a ticket to the stars
              B                
So close your eyes and know how 
            Em
lucky you are
Continues after the ad
              B                
So close your eyes and know how 
            Em
lucky you are


[Verse]
               Em           C  
Now that we’ve sung and you know 
                 G           
you’re not the only one to see 
B               Em
behind the truth
       C             G            
The ceremonial dispute of love and
   Bm              Em
 hate and war and games
        C                    
Before them white horses come 
 G                 Bm
galloping, you’re battling
Em    C              G           
Don’t forget to read between the 
B
lines

[Pre]
C
Because Rome wasn’t built in a day
B
And patience is the only way


[Chorus]
            Em         C          
This is the age of the lost and 
  G
the found
                Em       C        
And now raise a glass to those who
           G
 choose to live without
                  Em         C    
And don’t need no king for a 
       G
castle or a ticket to the stars
              B                
So close your eyes and know how 
           Em
lucky you are
              B                
So close your eyes and know how 
           Em
lucky you are
