A F#m (x2)
[A] Your hair hangs in [F#m]golden steps
You're [A]a bonafide in [F#m]every respect
You [A]are walking through streets that [F#m]mean nothing to you
[A] You believe you're above it and [F#m]I don't really blame you
[A] Maybe that's why you [F#m]speak like a child;
[A] The things you're saying like "[F#m]I'm so free and so wild"
[Bm] And I believe it when you [F#m]look in my eyes;
[Bm] You offer me a life that [F#m]never lies
Least [F]only the kind to [E]make me smile
[A] Your clothes are clean and your [F#m]mind is productive
[A] It shops in store where [F#m]only the best buy
[A] You're cool and hard, and if I [F#m]sound like a lecher
[A] It's probably true, but at [F#m]least there's no lecture
[A] I really like it when you [F#m]speak like a child
[A] The crazy sayings like "[F#m]I'm so free and so wild"
[Bm] You have to make a bargain [F#m]with me now
[Bm] A promise that you won't [F#m]change somehow
No [F]way, no how[E]
[Dmaj7]Spent all day [E]thinking about you
[Dmaj7]Spent all night [E]coming to terms with it
Dmaj7 C#aug
Time and conditions are built to tame
[F#m]Nothing lasts with age, so [F]people say
But [E]I will always try to feel the [A]same
[F#m]

Time and conditions are built to tame

But [E]I will always try to feel the [A]same
I really like it when you [F#m]speak like a child
[A] I really like it when you [F#m]speak like a child
[A] The way you hate the homely [F#m]rank and the file
[A] The way you're so proud to be [F#m]oh, so free and so wild
[A] I really like it when you [F#m]speak like a child
[A] I really like it when you [F#m]speak like a child
[A] I really like it when you [F#m]speak like a child
[A] The way you're so proud to be [F#m]oh, so free and so [A]wild
