If I Ever Was a Child Wilco
[Intro]
[D]
[Verse 1]
[D]I've never been [Am]alone
Long enough to [G]know
If I ever was a [D]child
[D]I was tied up like a [Am]boat
On a button like a [G]coat
Set free for a [D]while
[Cborus]
I'd [Em]jump to jolt my clumsy [Gm]blood
While my [D]white, green [A]eyes
[Verse 2]
[D]Cry like a window [Am]pane
Can my cold heart [G]change
Even out of [D]spite?
[Solo]
[D] [Am] [G] [D]
[Cborus]
I [Em]saw behind my [Gm]brain a haunted [D]stain
It never [A]fades
I [Em]hunt for the kind of [Gm]pain I can [A]take
[Verse 3]
And I [D]cry like a window [Am]pane
Can my cold heart [G]change
Over [D]night?
So [D]I won't ever want to [Am]touch
Your heart too [G]much
Or hold you too [D]tight
[Cborus]
I [Em]saw behind my [Gm]brain a haunted [D]stain
I'll never[A] fade
I [Em]hunt for the kind of [Gm]pain I can [A]take
[Coda]
[D]I never was [Am]alone
Long enough to [G]know
If I ever was a [D]child
