[Verse 1 - Chug with no drums] [Bm] When I was young, it seemed that [Gmaj7] life was so [F#m7] wonderful, [(G)] A [A] miracle, oh, it was [G] beautiful, [E7/G#] magical, And all the [Bm] birds in the trees, well, they'd be [Gmaj7] singing so [F#m7] happily, [(G)] Oh, [A] joyfully, oh, [G] playfully [E7/G#] watching me
[Verse 2 - Full drums but slap snare] But then they [Bm] sent me away, to teach me [Gmaj7] how to be [F#m7] sensible, [(G)][A] Logical, oh, re - [G] sponsible, [E7/G#] practical, And then they [Bm] showed me a world where I [Gmaj7] could be so de - [F#m7] pendable, [(G)] Oh, [A] clinical, oh, intel - [G] lectual, [E7/G#] cynical
