G Bm C D G
I Guess growing isn't hard to do
Bm C D
Just stand against the wall
G F C
Once I was just two feet high
Am F D
Today I'm six feet tall
G Bm C D G
But knowing who to listen to
Bm C D
Is something else again
G F C
Words just whistle 'round my head
Am F D
Like seasons in the wind
G F C Dsus4 D
All across the water the clouds are sail---ing
G F CaddD D
They won't let me look at the sky
G F C D
All I want to do is try and find myself
G D Csus4 C G
Come and let me look in your eyes.
G Bm C D G
In searching for the way to go
Bm C D
I've followed all the rules
G F C
The way they say to choose between
Am F D
The wise men and the fools
G Bm C D G
I listen to the words they say
Bm C D
I read what I should read
G F C
I do whatever's right to do
Am F D
Try to be what I should be
G F C Dsus4 D
Someone let me in I think the sky is fall----ing
G F CaddD D
Seems I've gotten lost on my way
G F C D
All I want to do is try and find myself
G D C
Come and let me look in your eyes
G D Csus4 C
Come and let me look in your eyes
Ad lib: G Bm C D Bm C D G F C Am F D
G Bm C D
But wisdom is-n't underground
Bm C D
Nor on a mountain side
G F C
And where am I to take myself
Am F Dsus4
There's no place here to hide
D
Where can I hide
G F C Dsus4 D
All across the universe the stars are fa---ding
G F CaddD D
Seems we've gotten lost on our way
G F C D
All I want to do is try and find myself
G D C
Come and let me look in your eyes
G D C
Come and let me look in your eyes
G D Csus4 C G D7sus4 G
Come and let me look in your eyes.
