A
When I was young

I thought I had my own key
A7M
I knew exactly

What I wanted to be
D9        A
Now I'm sure
B7              D9
You've boarded up every door


A
Lived in a bubble

Days were never ending
A7M
Was not concerned

About what life was sending
D9     A
Fantasy was real
B7        D9
Now I know much about the way I feel


B7           D9
I'll paint you the picture

'Cause I don't think
B7         D9
You live round here no more
           B7
I've never even seen
          D9
The key to the door
B7           D9
We only get what we will settle for


A          E
While we're living
 G6            D9               A
The dreams we have as children fade away
A         E
While we're living

The dreams we have as children fade away
A        E
While we're living

The dreams we have as children fade away
A        E
While we're living
G6        D9           F7M      D9      A
The dreams we have as children fade away away away

They fade away away away

A
Now my life has turned

Another corner
A7M
I think it's only best

That I should warn you
G6                 D9
Dream it while you can
B7               D9
Maybe someday I'll make you understand



B7           D9
I'll paint you the picture

'Cause I don't think
B7         D9
You live round here no more
           B7
I've never even seen
          D9
The key to the door

We only get what we will settle for
