Ch^Aildren beh^C#mave ^F#mThat's what they s^Eay when we're together A^And watch how you ^C#mplay They do^F#mn't understand a^End so we're

C#m A * Runnin' just as fast as we can C#m A * Holdin' on to one another's hand

Tr^Gyin' to get away into the night And then you p^Eut your arms around me as we tumble to the ground And then you s^Aay:
