Chords with lyrics
This is how I play the song. Suggestions and corrections welcome!
Sin Fang plays the song live on Capo 7. You can hit the transcribe button on the left to -7
and play those chords, but open chords sound good too! Play these without a capo.
[Intro]
G+G D MajorD E minorEm D MajorD x2
[Verse 1]
G+G D MajorD E minorEm D MajorD G+G D MajorD E minorEm D MajorD
Big eyed child seems it was only a little while
G+G D MajorD E minorEm D MajorD G+G D MajorD E minorEm D MajorD
Since I could reach the bottom now it's an ocean away
G+G D MajorD E minorEm D MajorD
Crept into the hallway to see if I could sleep
G+G D MajorD E minorEm D MajorD
We didn't have much but it was enough for me
G+G D MajorD E minorEm D MajorD
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (Woo!)
G+G D MajorD E minorEm D MajorD
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (Woo!)

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
[Pre-Chorus]
C majorC
To drift and dream
E minorEm
When I grow up I'm going to be a sunbeam
C majorC
To drift and dream
E minorEm
When I grow up I'm not going to be anybody
[Chorus]
G+G D MajorD
And then when I get older
G+G D MajorD
I'll let you stand on my shoulder
G+G D MajorD
I'll be a rock a boulder
G+G D MajorD
I'll be your spirit hand holder

[Verse 2]
G+G D MajorD E minorEm D MajorD G+G D MajorD E minorEm D MajorD
And you're lying in some cold room thinking about what they told you
G+G D MajorD E minorEm D MajorD G+G D MajorD E minorEm D MajorD
They all say they know you but they don't know you
G+G D MajorD E minorEm D MajorD
And you're sleeping in the some cold house
G+G D MajorD E minorEm D MajorD
With someone you don't care about
G+G D MajorD E minorEm D MajorD
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (Woo!)
