[Verse 1]
CmWhen I was young, it seemed that Abmaj7life was so Gm7wonderful,
A mBbiracle, oh it was bFm7/Abeautiful, mF7/Aagical.
And all the Cmbirds in the trees, well they'd be Abmaj7singing so Gm7happily,
Bb Fm7/Ab Am7b5
Joyfully, playfully watching me.
But then they Cmsend me away to teach me Abmaj7how to be Gm7sensible,
LoBbgical, resFm7/Abponsible, F7/Apractical.
And they sCmhowed me a world where I could Abmaj7be so depeGm7ndable,
Bb Fm7/Ab Am7b5
Clinical, intellectual, cynical.
[Chorus]
Eb Am7b5/Eb
There are times when all the world's asleep,
The questions run too Abmaj7/Ebdeep
For such a simple DbmanDbmaj7/C. Bbm7 Bbm7/Ab

Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned
I know it sounds Abmaj7/Ebabsurd
But please tell me who I Dbam.Dbmaj7/C Bbm7 Bbm7/Ab

ReBbspectable,Fm7/Ab presentable, a F7/Avegetable!
