Half A Century High
GC
In the tube where I was bor
CB
I could have swor
CD
There was so much to se
C
There was so little to b
GC
But I was fre
B
World at my comman
E
Through the dots I ra
AmD
Looking for a man who looked like m
Em
And now it can be tol
Em
I'm a quarter of a century ol
GFGFG
But I'm half a century hig
In the tube where I was raise
I was amaze
On the pictures I would lea
That went flashing on the scree
Oh, I was daze
But then my eyes were mad
hypnotized insane (?
Buried in my brai
In a blinding blaz
And now it can be tol
I'm a quarter of a century ol
But I'm half a century hig
In the tube where I was grow
I was alon
The figure on the floor (Laying on the floor
The dream behind the door (I'd lock the closet door
The sound was lo
Ballgames on the stree
Disappeared behind my fee
Out of breath my heart would b
To see another sho
And now it can be tol
I'm a quarter of a century ol
But I'm half a century hig
In the tube where I was mad
I was afrai
Spinning through the spac
another scene, another face
Another shad
Mirror of my min
On electric wheels of win
Living on the lines that were displaye
And now it can be tol
I'm a quarter of a century ol
But I'm half a century hig
In the tube where I was fe
I lost my hea
I watch the lives they le
Watch them to the en
And then agai
An open kind of laug
I gave all the mind I ha
And whenever I was sa
I had my friend
And now it can be tol
I'm a quarter of a century ol
But I'm half a century hig
In the tube where I was kille
I was fulfile
Such an easy way to wi
Talking to my twi
No sign of si
the sacrifice was smal
fascination was the fal
I was extended by the wall that held me i
And now it can be tol
I'm a quarter of a century ol
But I'm half a century hig
In the tube where I was kille
I was fulfille
The lies of light would ben
I'd stare until the en
And then agai
Faded and the fa
I gave all the mind I ha
And whenever I was sa
I had my friend
And now it can be tol
I'm a quarter of a century ol
But I'm half a century hig
In the tube where I was bor
I could have swor
There was so much to se
There was so little to b
But I was fre
World at my comman
Through the dots I ra
Looking for a man who looked like m
And now it can be tol
I'm a quarter of a century ol
But I'm half a century high
