A C#m F#m E x2
A. C#m F#m
Once in a while I act like a child to feel like a kid again
D. A. E
It feels like a prison in the body I'm livin in.
A. C#m
Cuz everyone's watching quick to start talking
F#m. D.
I'm losing my innocence. Wish I were a little girl
A. E
Without the weight of the world.
Chorus:
A. C#m F#m
It would be nice, to start over again
D. A
Before we were men
E. F#m
I'd give, I'd bend
E.
Lets play, pretend.
