[Intro] C
[Verse]
C G F
So now I am older
Em F
Than my mother and father
Em Dm
When they had their daughter
G F G G7
Now what does that say about me?
C G F
Oh how could I dream of
Em F
Such a selfless and true love
Em Dm
Could I wash my hands of?
G F G G7
Just lookin out for me
[Chorus]
F Em Dm Dsus2
Oh man what I used to be
G F Dm F G G7
Oh man oh my oh me

Oh man what I used to be

Oh man oh my oh me

[Verse 2]
C G F
In dirth or in excess
Em F
Both the slave and the empress
Em Dm
Will return to the dirt I guess
G F G
Naked as when they came
C G F
I wonder if I'll see
Em F
Any faces above me
Em Dm
Or just cracks in the ceiling
G F G
Nobody else to blame
[Chorus]
F Em Dm Dsus2
Oh man what I used to be, oh
G F Dm F G G7

Oh man what I used to be, oh

[Verse 3]
C G F
Gold teeth and gold jewelry
Em F
Every piece of your dowry
Em Dm
Throw them into the tomb with me
G F G
Bury them with my name
C G F
Unless I have someday
Em F
Ran my wandering mind away
Em Dm
aaaay
G F G G7

Oh man what I used to be

Montezuma to tripoli, oh
G F Dm F G
