Someday baby, when I am a man,
  Cadd9Cadd9     D MajorD
and others have taught me
  G+G        D MajorD
the best that they can
     G+G    D/F#D/F#
They'll sell me a suit
E minor 7Em7    G+G
cut off my hair
  Cadd9Cadd9    D MajorD      G+G      D MajorD
and send me to work in tall buildings

     G+G       D/F#D/F#
And it's goodbye to the sunshine
  E minor 7Em7     G+G
goodbye to the dew
Cadd9Cadd9     D MajorD
goodbye to the flowers
  G+G      D MajorD
and goodbye to you
  G+G      D/F#D/F#
I'm off to the subway
 E minor 7Em7     G+G
I must not be late

I’m going to work in tall buildings

Now when I’m retired
    E minor 7Em7    G+G
And my life is my own
  Cadd9Cadd9    D MajorD
I made all the payments
   G+G     D MajorD
It's time to go home
  G+G      D/F#D/F#
and wonder what happened
 E minor 7Em7    G+G
betwixt and between
  Cadd9Cadd9    D MajorD      G+G      D MajorD
when I went to work in tall buildings

     G+G       D/F#D/F#
And it's goodbye to the sunshine

goodbye to the dew
Cadd9Cadd9     D MajorD
goodbye to the flowers

Going to work in tall buildings
