♫ Verse 1:
C majorC FF
Never was a child of the salty earth
A minorAm G+G
Never that far from grace
FF A minorAm
Spent most my time working out
G+G
How I fit in time and space
C majorC FF
And you had your own
I’m sure you did
A minorAm G+G
And maybe’s not fair to say
FF A minorAm
But there’s so much more you could have learned
G+G
From a wide-eyed kid like me
♫ Chorus:
FF C majorC
Gimme the days
FF C majorC
Gimme the days I knew I'd touch the veil
Bb majorBb A minorAm
Still just a boy, green as a twig
G+G FF
Swaying in the wind forever

FF C majorC
Gimme the days
FF C majorC A minorAm G+G (extended walk-up on G+G)
♫ Verse 2:
C majorC FF
And I tried to wrestle every wonder
A minorAm G+G
In this endless chase
FF A minorAm
But I knew I needed something left
G+G
Of my fragile mental state
C majorC FF
Now somewhere there’s a light on
A minorAm G+G
There’s a spirit with a harness on
FF A minorAm
A augmentedA depth and unrelenting calm
E MajorE A minorAm
A augmentedA child running head-long
C majorC FF
There’s a line in the sand that I can’t see
C majorC FF
That tries to lay my dreams to waste
A minorAm
But I don’t care if it rains or freezes
G+G
As long as I got my head on straight
♫ Chorus:
FF C majorC
Gimme the days
