Verse are mainly a drone on Bb, which is the minor third of the Gm.
Arrangements bring a sixth on the C and the Bb of the last line of the chorus, optional.
 
 
[Intro]
Gm Gm7
Bb
Gm Gm7
 
 
[Verse 1]
Bb
  Now some of us are weak
Gm          Gm7
  And some endure
Bb
  And some people live their life
Gm             Gm7
  In violence that’s pure and clean
Bb
  But I saw a man cry once
Gm             Gm7
  Down on his knees
Bb
  In the corner of a darkened cell
Gm                   Gm7
  And his pain meant nothing to me
 
 
[Chorus 1]
C             Bb
  But I was younger then
C                 Bb
  And young men never die
C               Bb
 When I walked out in the sun
        C6           Bb6        Bbsus4 Bb Bsus2
I was strong, clear-minded and blind
 
Gm       Gm7
Bbsus4 Bb Bsus2
Gm    Gm7
 
 
[Verse 2]
Bb
  I don’t say a prayer for anyone
Gm          Gm7
  It doesn’t do any good
Bb
  Please don’t ask me questions
Gm           Gm7
  They’d just be misunderstood
Bb
  And if you could step inside me
Gm                Gm7
  You'd feel what hatred brings
Bb
  And if you saw with my eyes
Gm                 Gm7
  You'd see what self-deception means
 
 
[Chorus 2]
C             Bb
  I was younger once
C             Bb
  And I created a lie
C             Bb
  And though my body was strong
       C6             Bb6          Bbsus4 Bb Bsus2
I was self-deluded, confident and blind
 
Gm       Gm7
Bbsus4 Bb Bsus2
Gm    Gm7
 
 
[Verse 3]
B6
  Now show some pity
Gm7                Gm7
  For the weak of will
Bb
  Because when we’re drinking
Gm                     Gm7
  We can never be filled
Bb
  Show some understanding
Gm                Gm7
  For the lonely fool
Bb
  Because when I’m drinking
Gm             Gm7
  I’m out of control
 
 
[Chorus 3]
C             Bb
  I was never young
C             Bb
  Nothing has transpired
C             Bb
  But when I look in the mirror
       C6             Bb6     Bbsus4 Bb Bsus2
I feel dead, I feel cold, I am blind
 
 
[Outro]
Gm   Gm7
      Bbsus4 Bb Bsus2
I am blind, mmm
Gm   Gm7
      Bbsus4 Bb Bsus2
I am blind, mmm
