Lyrics
THE CHILD Intro: G to C G C G C It’s time to pick up and go home you know the saying and it goes Am D Am D All good things come to an end so say goodbye to all your friends G C G C But no, I want to play some more I remember all the joy Am D Am D Can it still be close to me if it is why can’t I see C Bm Am D Am D The child that I once was, not a care in the world just happy boys and girls C Bm Am D Am D The child that I once was, not a care in the world just happy boys and girls Am D G in the innocent world that was G C G C Where did it go what day was it maybe when my parents split Am D Am D That’s when the clouds came rolling in the day that pain became my friend G C G C I cried and wondered who was wrong who trashed my happy little home Am D Am D All I want to do is play laugh and sing the day away CHORUS G C G C I’m older now it’s plain to see sometimes the pain still touches me Am D Am D I want to feel the joy as well I know there’s heaven in that hell G C G C I learned to love my Mom and Dad I learned to create from the sad Am D Am D It’s time to feel the joy again I want to play with all my friends CHORUS
