If we were kids again
C C7 G
we'd hang out almost everyday
C C7 G
Running through woods at dawn
C C7 G
finding the magic in things
C C7 G
You'd help me up the tree
C C7 G
holding me up to the top of the branches
C C7 G
Open your book to read
C C7 E
the story that felt like we were already in
C G D
Where you're the king of the apple trees
E C G D
In the orchard where I'd come to eat
G C C7 G
Where we'd pull the wings off bees
C C7 G
To build a bed in the top of the barn
C C7 G
Humming through grass we'd sing
C C7 E
out in the fields with the wind in our ears
C G D
Where nights are long and in the day
E C
you'd paint and I'd write about outer space
E C G D
Where I'm the queen of the creek
E C G D
and the banks where you come to drink
G C C7 G
Swimming through birch and bark
C C7 G
tell you my secrets of how I can fly
C C7 G
And I'll show you how tonight
C C7 E
over bread and some white wine on ice
C G D
And I'll draw a bath and we'll cram in
E C G D
And we'll write this story as we begin
And on the bus we're still living
E C G D
in the pages of our book that we have written
E C G D
And as if the wheels have turned to wings
E C G D
Traveled back to our world filled with birch trees broken barns
