A F#m (x2)


A F#m
Your hair hangs in golden steps
A F#m
You're a bonafide in every respect
A F#m
You are walking through streets that mean nothing to you
A F#m
You believe you're above it and I don't really blame you


A F#m
Maybe that's why you speak like a child;
A F#m
The things you're saying like "I'm so free and so wild"
Bm F#m
And I believe it when you look in my eyes;
Bm F#m
You offer me a life that never lies
F E
Least only the kind to make me smile


A F#m
Your clothes are clean and your mind is productive
A F#m
It shops in store where only the best buy
A F#m
You're cool and hard, and if I sound like a lecher
A F#m
It's probably true, but at least there's no lecture


A F#m
I really like it when you speak like a child
A F#m
The crazy sayings like "I'm so free and so wild"
Bm F#m
You have to make a bargain with me now
Bm F#m
A promise that you won't change somehow
F E
No way, no how


Dmaj7 E
Spent all day thinking about you
Dmaj7 E
Spent all night coming to terms with it
Dmaj7 C#aug
Time and conditions are built to tame
F#m F
Nothing lasts with age, so people say
E A
But I will always try to feel the same


F#m

A F#m (x3)

Bm F#m (x2) F E


Dmaj7 E
Spent all day thinking about you
Dmaj7 E
Spent all night coming to terms with it
Dmaj7 C#aug
Time and conditions are built to tame
F#m F
Nothing lasts with age, so people say
E A
But I will always try to feel the same


F#m
I really like it when you speak like a child
A F#m
I really like it when you speak like a child
A F#m
The way you hate the homely rank and the file
A F#m
The way you're so proud to be oh, so free and so wild


A F#m
I really like it when you speak like a child
A F#m
I really like it when you speak like a child
A F#m
I really like it when you speak like a child
A F#m A
The way you're so proud to be oh, so free and so wild


F#m

A F#m (to fade)
