C
The world is covered by our trails
C Cmaj7
Scars we cover up with paint
C
Watch them preach in sour lies
C Fmaj7
I would rather see this world through the eyes of a child
C
Through the eyes of a child

C
Darker times will come and go
C Cmaj7 C
Times you need to see her smile
Am Fmaj7
And mothers hearts are warm and mild
C Fmaj7
I would rather feel this world through the skin of a child
C
Through the skin of a child

When a human strokes your skin
C Cmaj7
That is when you let them in

Let them in before they go
C Fmaj7
I would rather feel alive with a childlike soul
C
With a childlike soul
