[Em]

[Verse 1]
I was green in my young[G]er days
[Asus4]Full of plans but[A] not much know[C]in'
[Em]Tried my hand at the game of l[G]ove
But [A]I w[Asus4]as so naive[A][B]
[Em]From the shelter of
[G]mama's [A]wings
Learned to fly but [C]I was b[Em]roken
By a woman [G]of 25
When [Asus4]I was just
[A]19[B][Am]

[Verse 2]
Didn't know where to find [Bm]myself[C]
The rules they were [D]not
so [Am]simple
Makes no [A]sense tryin'
to face [Bm]this world
'til you're [C]old enough to fight

Found myself on the road [G]again
[Am]Freezin' from [A]the cold[B]

Fortune found me [G]in [A]'82
With [Am]a girl from [C]way down [Em]under
She seemed like the natur[G]al thing
I [A]thought I knew [B]for sure

[Verse 5]
[Am]Tried to hold her- - I could not s[Bm]ee[C]
Past her eyes was a spell
[D]unb[Am]roken
Battered visions and [Bm]frozen dreams
That would [C]never see [D]the light...now you're
[Em]my[G][Em]

[D]light[Em][D][Em]
Lover...you're the reason I'll

It's a long road [D]to salvation
