Intro: D A / G D A [listen to the album to get the timing] D Balloons flying, children sighing G A What a day to go kite flying D Breeze is cool, away from school G A Cowboys fighting out a duel Bm G Time seems to stand quite still Bm G D A In a child's world it always will D Fishes biting, so exciting G A Lunchtime sounds so inviting D At the bill, he gets a thrill G A Sitting, watching bobbing quill Bm G Time seems to stand quite still Bm G D A In a child's world it always will C D Yesterday's dreams G D Are tomorrow's sighs C D Watch children playing G A They seem so wise [repeat intro] D Mary Green today's a queen G A One thousand dollies are her dream D In cotton frocks and golden locks G A Her palace is an orange box Bm G Time seems to stand quite still Bm G D A In a child's world it always will [repeat intro]
