VERSE 1
       D
Little child, I have found
     F#m
If I stood up and looked around
          G                                          D
I'd see a brand new face staring right back at me
    D
I believe, I am sure
         F#m
That I'm taller than I was before
           G                                D
Building a brand new bridge into sincerity


CHORUS
            G                                A
But it's at times like this we must learn to grow
        D                               G
Throw a penny for my children, they are going down
         A                                     D
When the light shines down much brighter, many souls are found
      D                                        G
And I can't believe what they're saying in the overground
        A                           Bb [break]
Throw a penny for my children going down


MIDDLE 8
Bb                           [ch]Bb7/Ab[/ch]
Listen to the wise man as he breathes
            Gm
He's really loving me (loving me)
           C7sus2            [ch]Cm/F[/ch]
He must be loving me (loving me)

   Bbmaj7                        [ch]Bb7/Ab[/ch]
At night I turn my face into the wind
              Gm
And I whisper secretly (secretly)
               C7sus2     [ch]Cm/F[/ch]            [Bb]
What means the most to me   and bring him close
Bb                      F# 
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-aaaaaaah


VERSE 2
        D
Make it bad, make it good
        F#m
Make it easy to be understood
              G                                   D
Well, I see a velvet day breaking across the sky
    D
I believe, I am sure
     F#m
I am taller than I was before
           G                                      D
Building a brand new bridge, I know I'm gonna try


CHORUS
            G                                A
But it's at times like this we must find out why
        D                               G
Throw a penny for my children, they are going down
         A                                     D
When the light shines down much brighter, many souls are found
      D                                        G
And I can't believe what they're saying in the overground
        A                           [Bb] [break]
Throw a penny for my children going down
