Chord/Tab song: I Was Never Young

I was never young - of Montreal

[A] [C]
[A] [C] [D]
[A]
[A]I was never young, even as a [C]child
Said [A]I was never young
I've always felt be[C]guiled
Oh, [D]I just never [A]smiled

Bbaug Bm
But you have a glow
From an [Dnaj7]inner sense I'll never [G]know

Because I was never young, even as a boy
No, I was never young
Kindness seemed no ploy to temper or annoy

But you, you have a mind
Full of wonderment I'll never find
Because I was never young


[F] [Bb]
[F] [Bb]
[Ab] [Db] [Eb]

[F]Ever since I was a kid
I've [Bb]been a brooding basket case
[F]Ever since I was a kid
I've [Bb]been a brooding basket case
