The intro will be played on the [G] followed by the [C] chord.

followed by:

       e|----3-----3s6-|      
       B|-1-----1------|

Repeat for two times.

So it goes like this:


        G              D            C                 Am7
It's not time to make a change, just relax and take it easy
             G                 Em
You're still young that's your fault,
           Am               D
there's so much you have to know
       G            D            C                Am7
Find a girl, settle down, if you want to, you can marry
        G        Em           Am     D
Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy
      G                 Bm7        C                 Am7
I was once like you are now, and I know that its not easy
      G                 Em                    Am   D
to be calm, when you've found something going on.
              G             Bm7           C                Am7
But take your time, think a lot, think of everything you've got
             G               Em               D          G
For you will still be here tomorrow, but your dreams may not

G-C G-C

Chorus:
        G          Bm             C                  Am7
How can I try to explain?  when I do he turns away again
     G               Em             Am    D
it's always been the same, same old story
         G              Bm         C          Am7
From the moment I could talk I was ordered to listen
              G         Em     D       G
now there's a way and I know I have to go away
      D      C       G    G-C  G-C
and I know I have to go.

        G              D            C                 Am7
It's not time to make a change, just sit down and take it slowly
             G                 Em
You're still young, that's your fault, 
           Am               D
there's so much you have     to go through
       G            D            C                Am7
Find a girl, settle down, if you want to you can marry
        G        Em           Am     D
Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy


        G          Bm             C                  Am7
All the times that I cried, keeping all the things I knew inside
      G                 Em                    Am   D
It's hard, but it's harder to ignore it.
         G              Bm                C          Am7
If they were right, I'd agree, but it's them they know, not me
             G               Em        D     G
Now there's a way, and I know that I have to go away.
   D      C       G (single strum)
I know I have to go.
