[Intro]
Asus2 B
Asus2 B D E
[Verse 1]
Asus2 I keep to myself what I might share with others B but they don't seem to understand Asus2 I open my mouth to rediscover B D E I don't have the words at my command Asus2 holding out for a world so much better B but I'm a stranger in a stranger's land Asus2 all my friends have sold out couldn't handle the pressure B D E counting their blessings trying to salvage what they can
[Chorus]
C#m7 Amaj7 Children say - children say Cmaj7 D we open our minds as one C#m7 Amaj7 as one more day - slips away Cmaj7 D why don't the dreams of the young never come to be
[Verse 2]
Asus2 When I overhear my parents conversations B well I'm struck by the things they say Asus2 it seems they traded the years for mere complications B D E who ever thought it could end this way Asus2 they close the door but they can't lock it B 'cause something of their childhood remains Asus2 and they've felt it before when the man in their pocket B D E counted the cost of their material gains
[Chorus]
C#m7 Amaj7 Children say - come what may Cmaj7 D be strong for the friends you've known C#m7 Amaj7 but one fine day - (not) far away Cmaj7 D will we remember the love we used to own C#m7 Amaj7 Children say - children say Cmaj7 D we open our minds as one C#m7 Amaj7 as one more day - slips away Cmaj7 D why don't the dreams of the young never come to be
[Solo]
Asus2 B
Asus2 B D E
[Verse 3]
Asus2 Well you knew what I was saying but did you know what it meant B when you saw that look in my eye did you know it was heaven sent Asus2 was it all a waking dream all that time we must have spent B D E well I guess it must have been somehow that feeling came and went
[Chorus]
C#m7 Amaj7 Children say - come what may Cmaj7 D be strong for the friends you've known C#m7 Amaj7 but one fine day - (not) far away Cmaj7 D will we remember the love we used to own C#m7 Amaj7 Children say - children say Cmaj7 D we open our minds as one C#m7 Amaj7 as one more day - slips away Cmaj7 D why don't the dreams of the young never come to be
[Outro]
C#m7 Am7 D (repeat and fade out)
