A9
Have you seen my Childhood?
                  D/F#            E7/G
I'm searching for the world that I come from
             A9
'Cause I've been looking around
                      D/F#      E7
In the lost and found of my heart...


           Amaj9
No one understands me
                  Bm7                  E74
They view it as such strange eccentricities...
 E7            Amaj9
'Cause I keep kidding around
                   Em7/A            A7
Like a child, but pardon me...


D7M  C#m7    Bm7 Amaj9
People say I'm not okay
       Bm7/E      E7       Amaj9
'Cause I love such elementary things...
     D7M   C#m7    Bm7   Amaj9
It's been my fate to compensate,
        Gmaj13                   Bm7/E      E7
for the Childhood I've never known...


             Amaj9
Have you seen my Childhood?
                  Bm7         E74
I'm searching for that wonder in my youth
E7               Amaj9
Like pirates and adventurous dreams,
                       Em7/A      A7
Of conquest and kings on the throne...


  Dmaj9(#11) C#m7 A/C#  Dmaj9(#11) C#m7   A/C#
Before you judge me, try hard to love me,
     Dmaj9(#11)       C#m7 A/C#            C6      Amaj9 D/E
Look within       your heart       then ask,
             Amaj9
Have you seen my Childhood?


Bmaj9 C#m7 F#7sus F#7 E/G# F#7/Bb Bmaj9 F#m7/B


E7M  Ebm7    C#m7         Bmaj9
People say I'm strange that way
       F#7           Bmaj9
'Cause I love such elementary things,
     E7M   Ebm7    C#m7  B7M
It's been my fate to compensate,
        Amaj13                  C#m7/F#       F#7
For the Childhood I've never known...

             B
Have you seen my Childhood?
                  E/G#        C#m7/F#
I'm searching for that wonder in my youth
F#7      E/G#  F#7/Bb    Bmaj9
Like fantastical       stories to share
                          F#m7/B  B/A Abm7 B7/F# 
The dreams I would dare, watch me fly...


   Emaj9(#11)   Ebm7   B/D#    Emaj9(#11) Ebm7    B/D#
Before you       judge me,  try hard to         love me.
      Emaj9(#11) Ebm7            D7M  Bmaj9 C#m7/F#
The painful youth    I've had
             Bmaj9
Have you seen my Childhood...
