Teddy Thompson - Missing Children
CAPO: 2nd Fret
[Intro]
G
[Verse 1]
Wake up and check the mail, hoping to find a letter from you
C G
But all I find are missing children
Turn on the morning news, hoping to see a resemblance of you
C G
But all I see are missing children
[Chorus]
D Eb D G
Tell me, do you miss me like a missing child
[Verse 2]
Trying to start my day, pouring the coffee, reach for the milk
C G
And the carton says, "Have you seen these children?"
So I go to church and pray, down on my knees, when the plate comes with
C G
"Please give what you can for the missing children"
[Chorus]
D Eb D G Am
Tell me, do you miss me like a missing child
[Bridge]
D C D Am
And I do feel bad for faces in my face all day
D C Cm G
But the circumstance means, I can't think of anything but you
C Cm D G
No, I can't care for anyone but you
[Verse 3]
So I try to get away, whole different place, but the signs are the same
C G
There's always more, more missing children
And when I closed my eyes, I used to dream sweet dreams of you
C G
Now all my dreams are missing children
[Chorus]
D Eb D G
And I miss you, I miss you like a missing child
D Eb D G Eb
Yeah, I miss you, I miss you like a missing child
D G Eb
A missing child
D G Eb D G
A missing child_______
