Watching It Go Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]It seems that I'm spendin'
most of my time
[G]Spendin' ten cents while
I'm makin' a dime
Try[C]in' to make sense [G]out of
[Am]life's mixed -up [G]rhymes
Mean[F]while [G]I'm watchin' it [C]go
Butterfly spins in his little cocoon
Think[G]ing of songs that
he'll be singing soon
He's a [C]few listen [G]to the
but[Am]terfly's tune
[G]Me, [F]I'm just wat[G]ching it go[C]
Watch[G]ing it go
Wanting to know
Where do you go when you [C]sin[G][C]
Poor Cinderella,
she's bowin' her head
[G]Tellin' some stranger what
a hard life she's lead
[C]Glass slippers [G]fast asleep
up [Am]under the [G]bed
[F]Sadly I'm [G]watchin' her [C]go
Prince Charming dressed in
disarming disguise
[G]Flashin' his charms
as he's blindin' her
Morn[C]ing will hear [G]them say their
sun[Am]shine good[G]byes
[F]I've seen a [G]few of them [C]go
Watch[G]ing them go
Wanting to know
Where do you go when [C]you've
[G]been[C]
[G][Am][G][F][G][C]
Well, me, like so many,
I've tried so many things
Walk[G]ing on crutches and
calling them wings
[C]Wondering who [G]pulls the
[Am]puppeteer's [G]strings
[F]Me, I'm [G]just wanting to [C]know
My mind's too confined to
keep wanting wrong
Look[G]ing for a place I can be all alone
Well, [C]I hear them singin'
[G]how they wanna [Am]go home[G]
[F]Knowin' they nev[G]er can [C]go
[G]Watchin' it go
Wantin' to know
Where do you go when
[C]you've been
Watchin' it go
Watchin' it fade away
Watchin' it go, watchin' it go
I see the light shine bright
but still it fades away
Watchin' it go,
[C]watchin' it fade away you
