Verse
Em|D|Em|A
My eyes have seen the glory of the sacred wunderkind  
You took me behind a disused railway line
And said I know a place where we can go, Where we are not known
And you told me something that I won’t forget too soon

Pre Chorus
G|A|G|A
C|D|C|D
But I can’t believe you’d ever care
And this is why you will never care

Chorus
Em|D|Em|A
C|D
These things take time
I know that i’m
The most inept
That ever stepped

I’m spellbound; by a woman divine
And the hills are alive with celibate cries
And I know where you came from, I know where You’re going and i know, where you belong
You said I was ill, and you were not wrong

But I can’t believe you’d ever care
And this is why you will never care

These things take time
I know that i’m
The most inept
That ever stepped

Oh, the alcoholic afternoons When we sat in your room
They meant more to me Than any, any living thing on earth
They had more worth Than any living thing on earth
On earth, on earth, oh ...

You will leave me behind
