--------------------------------------------------------------------------- [Verse 1]
       D
Little child, I have found

     F#m
If I stood up and looked around

          G                                          D
I'd see a brand new face staring right back at me

    D
I believe, I am sure

         F#m
That I'm taller than I was before

           G                                D
Building a brand new bridge into sincerity
[Chorus]
            G                                A
But it's at times like this we must learn to grow

        D                               G
Throw a penny for my children, they are going down

         A                                     D
When the light shines down much brighter, many souls are found

      D                                        G
And I can't believe what they're saying in the overground

        A                           Bb [break]
Throw a penny for my children going down
[Middle 8]
Bb                           Bb7/Ab
Listen to the wise man as he breathes

            Gm
He's really loving me (loving me)

           C7sus2            Cm/F
He must be loving me (loving me)

   Bbmaj7                        Bb7/Ab
At night I turn my face into the wind

              Gm
And I whisper secretly (secretly)

               C7sus2     Cm/F            [Bb]
What means the most to me   and bring him close

Bb                      F# 
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-aaaaaaah
[Verse 2]
        D
Make it bad, make it good

        F#m
Make it easy to be understood

              G                                   D
Well, I see a velvet day breaking across the sky

    D
I believe, I am sure

     F#m
I am taller than I was before

           G                                      D
Building a brand new bridge, I know I'm gonna try
[Chorus]
            G                                A
But it's at times like this we must find out why

        D                               G
Throw a penny for my children, they are going down

         A                                     D
When the light shines down much brighter, many souls are found

      D                                        G
And I can't believe what they're saying in the overground
