Verse 1:
G+G       C majorC
There's a kid inside
A augmentedA       D MajorD
And I have him with me always
G+G       C majorC
There's a kid inside
A augmentedA         D MajorD
Walking down old high school hallways
G+G        C majorC
There's a kid inside
   A augmentedA     A7A7      B7B7
At a desk, at a dance, in the halls, in the showers
G+G       G7G7
There's a kid inside
    Cadd9Cadd9 C majorC Cmaj7Cmaj7
To this very day

Verse 2:
G+G        C majorC      Cadd9Cadd9
And he makes a try for that high pop fly
A augmentedA    A7A7    Dsus2Dsus2  D MajorD
That I fumbled one September
G+G        C majorC      Cadd9Cadd9
And he makes a fuss over some A augmentedA plus
A augmentedA    A7A7    Dsus2Dsus2  D MajorD
That I shouldn't still remember
G+G      C majorC Cmaj7Cmaj7
And he goes along
A augmentedA           A7A7       B7B7
Getting hurt, getting mad, fighting fights that are over
G+G        G7G7
And unless I'm strong
      Cadd9Cadd9 C majorC Cmaj7Cmaj7 C majorC
All my senses are carried away

Verse 3:
G+G        C majorC      Cadd9Cadd9
I could feel my hand – My trembling hand
A augmentedA    A7A7    Dsus2Dsus2  D MajorD
On Michell's angora sweater
G+G       C majorC     Cadd9Cadd9   A augmentedA  A7A7     Dsus2Dsus2    D MajorD
I can hear my band – That awful band, only now it sounds much better
G+G       C majorC       Cadd9Cadd9  A augmentedA
I can see the kid, The kid I used to be
    A7A7      B7B7
On the stage, on the field, on the lunch line
G+G        G7G7
I can feel him tugging at me
    C majorC   Cadd9Cadd9     C(b9)
Every time I think I don't care I blink

Chorus:
G+G       D MajorD Dsus2Dsus2   C majorC Cadd9Cadd9 C majorC Cmaj7Cmaj7
And he's there again, he's there again
G+G                D MajorD    Dadd4    C majorC Cadd9Cadd9 C majorC Cmaj7Cmaj7
Fighting ancient wrongs, humming old hit songs in my head
    G+G       Dsus2Dsus2 D MajorD    C majorC Cadd9Cadd9 C majorC Cmaj7Cmaj7
Singing come along, come along, come along for the ride
   G+G           D MajorD Dadd4    C majorC Cadd9Cadd9 C majorC Cmaj7Cmaj7
To a time and place I could not forget if I tried

Verse 4:
G+G      C majorC      Cadd9Cadd9    A augmentedA
And I never know when the breeze'll blow
A7A7       Dsus2Dsus2  D MajorD
With a rush of old sensation
G+G          C majorC      Cadd9Cadd9    A augmentedA
Why the kid should wake, and my heart should ache
A7A7      Dsus2Dsus2  D MajorD
Every time I smell carnations
G+G          C majorC    Cadd9Cadd9  A augmentedA
Something rings the bell, anything at all
    A7A7     B7B7
All it takes is a slam of a locker
G+G         G7G7
Or the switch from summer to fall
 C majorC     Cadd9Cadd9    C(b9)
A augmentedA change in season seems barely reason,

Chorus:
G+G       D MajorD    Dsus2Dsus2  C majorC Cadd9Cadd9 C majorC Cmaj7Cmaj7
But there he goes, he's there again
G+G                D MajorD    Dadd4    C majorC Cadd9Cadd9 C majorC Cmaj7Cmaj7
Fighting ancient wrongs, humming old hit songs in my head
    G+G       Dsus2Dsus2 D MajorD    C majorC Cadd9Cadd9 C majorC Cmaj7Cmaj7
Singing come along, come along, come along for the ride
   G+G           D MajorD Dadd4    C majorC Cadd9Cadd9 C majorC Cmaj7Cmaj7
To a time and place I could not for get if I tried

Outro:
G+G    D MajorD Dsus2Dsus2   C majorC Cadd9Cadd9 C majorC Cmaj7Cmaj7
There he goes again, hummin' his songs
G+G  D MajorD Dadd4 C majorC Cadd9Cadd9 C majorC Cmaj7Cmaj7    G+G   Dsus2Dsus2 D MajorD
He's there again,  there's a kid inside
Cadd9Cadd9 C majorC Cmaj7Cmaj7 C majorC
Hummin' his songs
G+G   Dsus2Dsus2 D MajorD Cadd9Cadd9 C majorC Cmaj7Cmaj7 C majorC    G+G
He's there again,   there's a kid inside
