(intro) G5

G5                 E5            A5     F5            G5
When I am older than these small goddamned hills
G5                             E5       A5    F5       G5
And there's no reason for my mind to be still

C5        G5             G5      A5
Oh, how I'll feel like a beautiful child
       A5           F5       G5
Such a beautiful child again
           A5
Such a beautiful child
       A5           F5       G5
Such a beautiful child again

G5                          E5          A5    F5               G5
When I have finally found my room filled with toys
G5                      E5     A5        F5
Be banging on my crib excited with

C5        G5
Oh, how I'll feel
C5        G5
Oh, how I'll feel
C5        G5
Oh, how I'll feel
G5        A5
like a beautiful child
          A5          F5       G5
Such a beautiful child again
           A5
Such a beautiful child
       A5           F5       G5
Such a beautiful child again

(solo) G5  E5  A5  F5  G5

G5                            G5
And when there's nothing to gain
   C5        G5   A5     C5
Or bring  me  pain
   G5       E5
or pin the blame
E5    A5    F5           G5
On     you   or   myself

G5                       G5
And when they finally fall
      C5   G5  A5     C5
These wailing walls
      G5        E5    E5
and burdened crosses
A5      F5
God's twilight

C5        G5
Oh, how I'll feel
C5        G5
Oh, how I'll feel
C5        G5
Oh, how I'll feel
G5        A5
like a beautiful child
          A5          F5       G5
Such a beautiful child again
       A5
Such a beautiful child
       A5           F5       G5
Such a beautiful child again
          A5
Such a beautiful child
       A5           F5       G5
Such a beautiful child again

G5                     E5            A5     F5            G5
When I am older than these small goddamned hills
