Verse 1:
C Gm
In the spring we wake
Where all dreams we make
Bb C
There's a place we once knew
Gm C
Something old, something true
Gm
To just spend all day
Going back that way
Bb C
Now the days go so fast
Gm C
Give me time, give me past
Chorus:
F
And I know
It's been so long
D Bb
Since we were children of the sun
C
So we go..
Gm C F
Mmm, lay our heads down on the green
Dm C
Like when we were young
Gm C F
Mmm, see the world up from the trees
Dm C
Like when we were young
Gm C Gm C
Memories, memories
Verse 2:
C Gm
How I'd love to find
That old place of mine
Bb C
Feel the afternoon glow
Gm C
Something warm, something slow
Gm
But our minds got small
When our legs grew tall
Bb C
And our eyes don't see right
Gm C
Give me soul, give me sight
Chorus:
F
And I know
It's been so long
D Bb
Since we were children of the sun
C
So we go..
Gm C F
Mmm, lay our heads down on the green
Dm C
Like when we were young
Gm C F
Mmm, see the world up from the trees
Dm C
Like when we were young
Gm C Gm C
Memories, memories
F Dm C
On the green
F Dm C
On the green
