Age old story
The title track for this concept album and where it all started... An atmospheric folk/blues with jazzy ovetones about temptation and fall.
words and music by Martin Stirrup 2018
Age old story (capot 3 so Cm…Fm G)
Am Am
Rain ripping through sultry evening air
Am
Thoughts slipping from the one who isn't there
Am
Rough linen on soft velvet skin
Am
Resolve is thinning temptation rushes in
Salt tang to the moisture on your lip
Bells clang as you feel your future flip
Soft touch of a finger on your hand
Says so much that your body understand
Dm
How did it come to this?
Am
How did things ever get this far
Dm
How did it come to this?
E E7
You're just the latest star
Am
In an age old story
Recline resolution at a loss
Red lines can be easily slipped across
Past roles dissipate and run
Two souls merging into one
