Wonder boy, life's just begun. 
 D7                                                        
Turn your sorrow into wonder 
 G                                                        
Dream alone, don't sigh, don't groan 
 D7                                                        
Life is only what you wonder. 
 G                                                        
Day is as light as your brightest dreams, 
 D7                                                        
Night is as dark as you feel it ought to be. 
 G                                                        
Time is as fast as the slowest thing, 
 D7                                                        
Life is only...

C                                                         
People strain their eyes to see, 
 D                D7/C

Life is full of work and plunder[?]. 
 G                                                        
Easy go, life is not real, 
 D7                                                        
Life is only what you conjure.
