TUNING: STANDARD
NO CAPO



--INTRO--
A A A A
(Let it ring, or pick a few notes, whatever you like; the pre-singing bit is just A)


--VERSE--
A
What is this about?
                   D
Where is everybody going?
                 A
What am I doing here?
                                      D
Can't separate what I really need to know and
                    A
What I just want to hear
                                  D
Maybe I'm alone maybe everybody's lost too
                          A
Looking for their own way out
                                        D
Maybe I don't know maybe I don't even want to

--BRIDGE 1--
                      (A)  F#m
Just don't want to be let down
     C#m          D      A             E       F#m
There is no sureness, I kind of just stumble along
      C#m          D      A             E 
There must be purpose in trying to keep on

--CHORUS--
D                              F#m
What do I know? I’m a child
                E                  A*
Just trying to talk like a mother does
D                                  F#m
Seeing life come and go all the time
                E                  A*
It's never as long as you wish it was
D                                  F#m
Ohh-ooh, Ohh-oh, Ohh-ooh, Maybe I’m 
F#m               E
still trying to see like a child does

--VERSE--
A                                       F#m
And I always feel like I did when I was younger
                 D
Can't talk sense into me
A                                        D
How do you decide when to know or how to wonder
                     F#m
Or how to just get free
        C#m       D      A             E       F#m
There’s no certainty, I kind of just stumble along
      C#m      D        A             E 
Doesn't bother me, I'm trying to keep on

--CHORUS--
D                              F#m
What do I know? I’m a child
                E                  A*
Just trying to talk like a mother does
D                                  F#m
Seeing life come and go all the time
                E                  A*
It's never as long as you wish it was
D                                  F#m
Ohh-ooh, Ohh-oh, Ohh-ooh, Maybe I’m 
F#m               E
still trying to see like a child does
          
--BRIDGE 2--
Bm
I seen both sides and felt it all
D                           F#m
I'm not a child anymore but I can't stand in here
              E
The way I did when I was a kid

--CHORUS x2--
D                              F#m
What do I know? I’m a child
                E                  A*
Just trying to talk like a mother does
D                                  F#m
Seeing life come and go all the time
                E                  A*
It's never as long as you wish it was
D                              F#m
What do I know? I’m a child
                E                  A*
Just trying to talk like a mother does
D                                  F#m
Seeing life come and go all the time
                E                  A*
It's never as long as you wish it was
D                                  F#m
Ohh-ooh, Ohh-oh, Ohh-ooh, Maybe I’m 
F#m               E
still trying to see like a child does
D                                  F#m
Ohh-ooh, Ohh-oh, Ohh-ooh, Maybe I’m 
F#m               E                 A*
still trying to see like a child does
