[Verse 1]
 Bm                              Gmaj7         F#m7
When I was young, it seemed that life was so wonderful,
    A                    G        E7/G#
A miracle, oh, it was beautiful, magical,
             Bm
And all the birds in the trees,
                 Gmaj7       F#m7
Well, they'd be singing so happily,
       A              G        E7/G#
Oh, joyfully, oh, playfully, watching me!


[Verse 2]
               Bm                      Gmaj7        F#m7
But then they sent me away, to teach me how to be sensible,
   A                 G         E7/G#
Logical, oh, re - sponsible, practical,
           Bm                           Gmaj7         F#m7
And they showed me a world where I could be so de - pendable,
       A                     G      E7/G#
Oh, clinical, oh, intel - lectual, cynical!


[Verse 3]
           D                             D6b5
There are times when all the world's a - sleep
                     Gmaj7/D                  C   Em/B  Am7   G
The questions run too deep for such a simple man, 
            D                                    D6b5 
Won't you please, ...please, tell me what we've learned,
                     Gmaj7/D
I know it sounds ab - surd,
                       C  Em/B  Am7   G
Please, tell me who I am-----------!

[Verse 4]
             Bm
I said now, watch what you say,
            Gmaj7         F#m7
They'll be calling you a radical,
    A                Gmaj7     E7/G#
A liberal, oh, fan - atical, criminal,
               Bm
Oh, won't you sign up your name,
            Gmaj7              F#m7
We'd like to feel you're ac - ceptable
        A                  Gmaj7        E7/G#
Re - spectable, oh, pre - sentable, a vegetable,

Oh, take it, take it,...


[Verse 5 - Sax solo]
...Yeah!

[Verse 6]
         D                             D6b5
But at night, when all the world's a - sleep,
                     Gmaj7/D                  C  Em/B  Am7  G
The questions run too deep for such a simple man,
            D                                 D6b5
Won't you please, please, tell me what we've learned,
                     Gmaj7/D
I know it sounds ab - surd,
                      C  Em/B  Am7   G       C  Em/B  Am7   G
Please, tell me who I am----------,    who I am-----------,
      C  Em/B  Am7    G         C  Em/B  Am7   G
Who I am-----------,     who I am-----------,     yeah!
