Bb Gm
Well am I burning in the back of your mind
Cm F
'Cause girl I can't get you out of mine
Bb Gm
And when I heard you say that you'd come of age
Cm F
But girl you don't look any older to me
Cm F
And what becomes of you
Cm F
When the fat lady sings her last tune?
Bb Gm
When you're holding on by a pin or a thread
Cm F
Will you think of me when you take your last breath?
Bb Gm
When you're crying out for a little more time
Cm
Will I still be burning there
F Bb
In the back of your mind?
Bb Gm
Well, how is life living out on your own?
Cm F
Well, how was life out of house and of home?
Bb Gm
And did you do the things that you said you would?
Cm F
Or right the wrongs that you said you should?
Cm F
And what becomes of you
Cm F
Can you say it's true that the life you've led was the life meant to be led by you
Bb Gm
When you're holding on by a pin or a thread
Cm F
Will you think of me when you take your last breath?
Bb Gm
When you're crying out for a little more time
Cm
Will I still be burning there
F
In the back of your mind?
Bb Gm
Girl, I know that with time there comes change
Cm F
Although I think I've more or less did the same
Bb Gm
I wonder if the same can be said for you
Cm F
Girl, have you stayed the same too?
Cm F
And what became of you
Cm F
When the fat lady sung her last tune?
Cm F
Say what became of you
Cm F
Can you say it's true that the life you've led was the life meant to be led by you
Bb Gm
Were you holding on by a pin or a thread?
Cm F
Did you think of me when you took your last breath?
Bb Gm
Were you crying out for a little more time?
Cm
And was I still burning there
F Bb
In the back of your mind?
