Since Ben wrote this when he was younger...it was probably played on the
album in standard tuning...but I think this way is easier.

     Lyrics:
     I had adog (x02210@1)he was amix (x02210@1)     He loved me like a God
     But I was just akid (x02210@1)     The kind mother likes
     Now I'm big like the sky
     And I'm down sized inside
     
     I'll put this all to rest
     I'm just a baby who looks like a boy
     I'm getting all depressed
     I'm just a baby who looks like a boy

     I got my father's sense
     And my big brother's pants
     And I look like a man
     And I feel like an ant
     Just a speck on the ground
     Growing like a weed
     Afleck (x02220@1)of aseed (x02210@1)
     I'll put my hand in flames
     I'm just a baby who looks like a boy
     Feels like I'm born again
     I'm just a baby who looks like a boy
     I'm just a baby who looks like a boy

     And I'll keep hanging from your hair
     And I'll keep playing in the sand
     Just as long as I can
