                 G
You've got your World,
              D7
and I've got mine
            G   C  G
and its a shame..
              G
Two grown up worlds
           C            D7  PC
that will never be the same

Chorus:

C
Why can't we be...
D7               G      E
like storybook children,
                    Am/G
running through the rain
         D7
hand in hand ,
             G   G7
across the meadow
C                 D7
Why can't we be...
                G       E
like storybook children,
          Am/G
in a wonderland
          D7              G     C G
when the things play for tomorrow..

(ok now repeat the same thing)

You've got his ring,
you've got his heart
you've got his baby..

and Billy its too late,
to turn away
and start all over again...
Oh no..don't tell me its too late baby..

Why can't we be...
like storybook children,
running through the rain
hand in hand ,
across the meadow

hold my hand one more time......
Why can't we be...
like storybook children,
in a wonderland
when the things play for tomorrow..
