A                   A7  
Crimson flames tied through my ears  
D                   Dm  
Rollin' high in mighty traps  
A                    C#m  
Pounced with fire on flaming roads  
F#m                        Bm  
Using ideas as my maps  
        E  
"Even the cops are not sure of the rules."  

A                     A7  
Ah, but I was so much older then  
D               Dm  
I'm younger than that now.  

A                   A7  
Half-wracked prejudice leaped forth

Lies that life is black and white  
F#m                   Bm  
Spoke from my skull, I dreamed  
        E

A                     A7  
Ah, but I was so much older then  
D               Dm  
I'm younger than that now.
