D Em7 Poor old granddad, I laughed at all his words D Em7 I thought he was a bitter man, he spoke of women's ways D Em7 They'll trap you, and they'll use you, and before you even know D Em7 For love is blind and your far to kind, don't ever let it show D Em7 G I wish that I knew what I know now, when I was younger D Em7 G I wish that I knew what I know now, when I was stronger D Em7 The Can Can's such a pretty show, they'll steal your heart away D Em7 But backstage's back on earth again, the dressing rooms are great D Em7 They'll come on strong and it ain't to long, before they make you feel a man D Em7 But love is blind and you soon will find, your just a boy again
D Em7 G I wish that I knew what I know now, when I was younger D Em7 G I wish that I knew what I know now, when I was stronger D Em7 When you want her lips, you get her cheek, makes you wonder where you are D Em7 If you want some more, and she's fast asleep, leaves you twinklin' with the stars D Em7 Poor young grandson, there's nothing I can say D Em7 You'll have to learn just like me, and that's the hardest way D Em7 G I wish that I knew what I know now, when I was younger D Em7 G I wish that I knew what I know now, when I was stronger D Em7 Oh la la, oh la la ya ya ya D Em7 Oh la la, oh la la ya ya ya
