My Better Years
Recorded by The Seldom Scene
Written by Hazel Dickens

G C
Now you’re back on my doorstep a’ crying
G D7
Like I cried through all those lonely years
G
But I can’t dry your tears
C G
It’s been too long since love was here
D7 G
And I’ve already gave you my better years

C
So the pages of time kept right on turning
G D7
They never stopped for us to harvest the years
G C
And old embers of love kept right on dying
G D7 G
For there was no one to dry up my tears

Repeat #1


But I try not to blame you
C
And I try not to shame you
G D7
All I can do now is wish you well
G
But if you should need a friend
C G
I’ll be there until the end
D7 G
Just don’t ask me to love you again

C
Don’t come back on my doorstep a-crying
G D7
Hoping for what’s been dead so long
G C
For the embers have all turned to ashes
G D7 G
There’s nothing here but old memories and this song

C
Don’t come back on my doorstep a-crying
G D7 C G
My friend there’s nothing but old memories and this song
