Carvin' the insides of a tree with a knife

As you used to be
VERSE:
One boy lives in a tower
With bow and arrow
And the artificial heart
With his girl
Late in the summer
He loaded the cannon
With a jealous appetite
They say that children now
They come in all ages
And maybe sometimes old men die
With little boy faces
(chorus)
repeat
BRIDGE:
C# B A E
You always said that you needed some
C# B A E B
But you always had more, more than anyone
(chorus)
repeat
