Written by Delta Goodrem and Vince Pizzinga
The verses may seem a little tricky at first, but the chorus and da da daing in the song only uses really simple chords.

Verse:
Bflatm               Aflat                  
Do you remember, when you were seven, 
Gflat             
and the only thing that you wanted to do was 
F
show your mum that you could play the piano.
Bflatm                          Aflat
Ten years have passed - and the one thing that lasts is that 
Gflat
same old song that we played along and 
F
made my mamma cry

Chorus:
Am                      F             E
I miss those days and I miss those ways -
Am
I got lost in fantasies in a
F               E     -      (hold chord)        -
cartoon land of mysteries in aplace you won't grow old, in a place you won't feel cold and i'll sing.

Am              F             G                 Em               Am
Da da da da da da da da da da da da, seems I'm lost in my reflection.
                F             G                 Em               Am
Da da da da da da da da da da da da, find a star for my direction.
                F             G                 Em               Am
Da da da da da da da da da da da da, for the little girl inside.
      F         G                 Em              Am
Who won't just hide don't let me see nustajes and lies
    F          G       Em           E
Let me keep my - faith in innocent eyes.

Verse 2 (Use chord progression from verse one)
Do you remember when you were fifteen and the kids at school called you a fool coz you took the chance to dream ... etc

Chorus

Bridge:
Dm/F      A               Dm
  Under my feeling under my skin -
Dm/F      A               Dm
  Under the thoughts from within -
Dm/F      A               Dm
 Learning the subtext of the mind -
Dm/F  A                  Dm
See creation how we're defined.

This is where the piano bit kicks in, it's just using the notes from an Aminor chord and working down three octaves.

Chorus x 2

End chorus finishes on an Am chord.

ie. G          Em          Am
keep my faith in innocent eyes.

that is all ... enjoy!
