LAm DO SOL
Tiny children on their own
REm LAm
they learn so fast
DO SOL
How to make new friends,
REm
how to play their new games
DO FA SOL
I remember a man he had shiny hair
DO FA SOL
Always hanging around when you went away
LAm DO
Little eight year old,
SOL REm
she knows too many secrets
LAm DO SOL
Much too young to understand
REm
what it means
DO FA SOL
I remember a woman with silver hair
DO FA REm SOL
And the smell and the taste of the bed we shared
LAm MI
And that's how I behaved
FA SOL
Every time that you went away
LAm MI
And now, though I'm older nothing's
FA SOL
changed (playing the same games)
LAm MI
And I knew every day
FA SOL
Came a chance that you'd leave me
LAm MI FA SOL
So I found what I could to take your place
LAm SOL
Told me not to cry
LAm DO
Said that I'd survive
REm SOL
As he waved goodbye
LAm-C-G-Dm
LAm SOL
And I want to try
LAm DO
Not to make you cry
REm MIm
Want us to survive
REm SOL
Never say goodbye
(same as above, end on Am)
But that's how I behave
when you go away
Because though I'm older nothing's changed (playing the same games)
And I know every day
There's a chance that you'll leave me
So I find what I can to take your place
