Intro: C/G G Am F (x2)
Verse 1:
C/G G Am
We were just five and playing poker
F C/G
When your mom came bursting in
G Am
Yeah we were just five and going nowhere
F C/G
'Cause we didn't know where to begin
G
You showed me my life
Am
You showed me a place
F C/G
This empty space
G Am
Yeah you had a style, we all adored it
F C/G
For the way you made it seem
G Am
So easygoing, yet so flawless
F C/G
You were really stuck in between
G Am
I dream of a hero saving the earth
F C/G
I dream of a mother giving birth
Chorus 1:
G Am
Why would you choose if you have so much time left
Em F
There's no reason you can do it all
C/G G
Just buckle up, don't look behind
C/G
And you'll be fine
Verse 2:
C/G G Am
Don't let me interrupt you
F C/G
I'm just making sure you feel alright
G Am
Don't let anybody love you
F C/G
'Cause you're better off being a child
G
You showed me my life
Am
You showed me a place
F
This empty space

Ohhh oh ohh
G
I close my eyes, and I improvise
Bridge:
C/G G
Take a big breath, then your first steps
Am
Cry your parents to sleep
F C/G
Think the words out of your mouth
G
Go to school and make your best friend
Am
Learn to use your hands

Eating sweets you really can't have
G
Fool around, wait to be found
F
But then the girls appear
F
You realize you're alive
But the end is quite near
