In The Eyes Of A Child Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C][Csus4][Gm][F]
[Fm][C][Gsus4][C]

[Verse 1]
There's [C]a
world of spinning daydreams
Where the grass is always green
Full of hide[Gm]aways and holidays
[F]and wonders to be seen
[Fm]It's a world of climbing trees,
[Gsus4]of grazing [C]knees and running wild
[Bb]In the eyes [Dm]of a ch[G]ild
Keeping [C]puppy dogs and kittens,
riding bicycles to school
Playing hide [Csus4]-and -seek and [C]hopscotch,
[F]disregarding every rule
Learn[Fm]ing alphabets and numbers,
[C]that's the way it's all compiled
[Gsus4]In the eyes of a child[C][Db]
And you watch them slowly changing,
learning more and more each day
[Cb]Growing older every [Dbsus4]minute,
and much [Gb]wiser, so they say
And you [Gbm]catch a knowing look
[Cb]where only inno[Db]cents once smiled
[Cb]In the eyes of[Abm] a child[Ab]
Oh, it's such [Db]a fleeting moment
Try to catch it if you can
Just a [Cb]few l[Abm]ong fading s[Dbsus4]ummers
[Abm]and the bo[Gb]y becomes a man
No [Gbm]more lollip[Ebdim]ops and spin [Gbm]ning tops
And [Db]all that's reconciled
[Absus4]In the eyes of[Ab] a chi[Db]ld[D]
As the years go swiftly flying
We forget what used to be
How the world [Am]was right
And starry bright
And [G]everything was free
Losing [Gm]all that simple pleasure
that was tender[D], that was mild,
in the [C]eyes [Am]of a c[A]hild.
And we [D]think we're pretty clever,
all the answers now we know.
No more lessons to be learned,
[Am]we closed our minds up[G] long ago.
[Gm]But it might just be that wisdom lies
where [D]senses are beguiled.
[A]In the eyes of [D]a c[F#m]hild[D]
[Am][D][G][Gm][D]
