Verse 1:
  G+G      G+G      C majorC        G+G
The light on the campfire is seen across the fields
   G+G  D MajorD      G+G     G+G
As we sit,  talking of childhood
   G+G      G+G     C majorC     G+G
Warm wine in the cup & the stories of friends
    G+G       D MajorD        G+G     G+G
All we know right now, is that this is good
   C majorC    C majorC      D MajorD    D MajorD
& the outside world cannot come in here
  C majorC   C majorC   D MajorD   D MajorD
Our hallow  safe place
G+G       G+G      C majorC     G+G
Safe from the blades & the cold bayonets
   G+G    D MajorD     G+G     G+G
& the sunken,   angry faces

Chorus:
   D MajorD  D MajorD     G+G   G+G
Hey hey,  we can play
      C majorC    C majorC    D MajorD     D MajorD
Through the backyards of our innocence
  G+G       G+G      C majorC      G+G
The sandbox & the swings & the ladder & the slide
      G+G    D MajorD         G+G    G+G
The secret places,  where we used to hide


Verse 2:
 G+G      G+G         C majorC       G+G
Laughter old friend it's good to see your face again
     G+G    D MajorD         G+G     G+G
It's been so long, since I heard your voice
   G+G      G+G      C majorC      G+G
Sometimes we forget when the grey gets us down
    G+G    D MajorD         G+G     G+G
We are young .  & still have a choice
   C majorC    C majorC     D MajorD     D MajorD
& the serious scenes & responsibilities
       C majorC     C majorC       D MajorD   D MajorD
weigh on our mind, till we are walking dead
    G+G       G+G        C majorC     G+G
but to joy I raise a glass & let the time roll past
     G+G        D MajorD         G+G     G+G
all that matters is where together here you said

Chorus:
   D MajorD  D MajorD     G+G   G+G
Hey hey,  we can play

Through the backyards of our innocence
  G+G       G+G      C majorC      G+G
The sandbox & the swings & the ladder & the slide
      G+G    D MajorD         G+G    G+G
The secret places,  where we used to hide


Verse 3:
   G+G      G+G      C majorC     G+G
As we share in remembrance of a lighter hour
  G+G  D MajorD        G+G     G+G
We bring, the playground back
    G+G       G+G       C majorC      G+G
All the romping & the whistling & the crying & the kissing
    G+G      D MajorD      G+G     G+G
& our whole lives,  inside a backpack
C majorC         C majorC      D MajorD      D MajorD
Going through the boxes & the rooms of my mind
 C majorC       C majorC       D MajorD   D MajorD
Digging out the cobwebs on the wall
   G+G      G+G      C majorC     G+G
O the bittersweet taste of the man I have become
G+G    D MajorD        G+G     G+G
Fades   & a young boy calls


Chorus:
   D MajorD  D MajorD     G+G   G+G
Hey hey,  we can play
      C majorC    C majorC    D MajorD     D MajorD
Through the backyards of our innocence

The sandbox & the swings & the ladder & the slide
      G+G    D MajorD         G+G    G+G
The secret places,  where we used to hide
      G+G    D MajorD         G+G
The secret places,  where we used to hide
