A5 F#5 (x2)


A5                   F#5
 Your hair hangs in golden steps
       A5             F#5
You're a bonafide in every respect
    A5                                F#5
You are walking through streets that mean nothing to you
A5                                F#5
 You believe you're above it and I don't really blame you


A5                     F#5
 Maybe that's why you speak like a child;
A5                               F#5
 The things you're saying like "I'm so free and so wild"
B5                         F#5
 And I believe it when you look in my eyes;
B5                        F#5
 You offer me a life that never lies
      F5                E5
Least only the kind to make me smile


A5                                F#5
 Your clothes are clean and your mind is productive
A5                        F#5
 It shops in store where only the best buy
A5                               F#5
 You're cool and hard, and if I sound like a lecher
A5                           F#5
 It's probably true, but at least there's no lecture


A5                          F#5
 I really like it when you speak like a child
A5                        F#5
 The crazy sayings like "I'm so free and so wild"
B5                          F#5
 You have to make a bargain with me now
B5                        F#5
 A promise that you won't change somehow
   F5           E5
No way, no how


D5         E5
Spent all day thinking about you
D5           E5
Spent all night coming to terms with it
D5       C#aug
Time and conditions are built to tame
F#5                        F5
Nothing lasts with age, so people say
    E5                             A5
But I will always try to feel the same

I really like it when you speak like a child

 I really like it when you speak like a child
A5                            F#5
 The way you hate the homely rank and the file
A5                              F#5
 The way you're so proud to be oh, so free and so wild


A5                          F#5
 I really like it when you speak like a child
A5                          F#5

 The way you're so proud to be oh, so free and so wild
