Intro: G D Em D x2 


verse 1 

G          D    Em       D           G     D Em  D 
Big eyed child seems it was only a little while 
G     D                   Em        D        G   D Em  D 
Since I could reach the bottom now it's an ocean away 
G                 D       Em               D 
Crept into the hallway to see if I could sleep 
    G           D           Em             D 
We didn't have much but it was enough for me 
G            D           Em          D 
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (Woo!) 
G            D           Em          D 
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (Woo!) 
D 
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh 


Pre-Chorus 

C 
To drift and dream 
                    Em 
When I grow up I'm going to be a sunbeam 
C 
To drift and dream 
                   Em 
When I grow up I'm not going to be anybody 


G             D 
And then when I get older 
G              D 
I'll let you stand on my shoulder 
G          D 
I'll be a rock a boulder 
G              D 
I'll be your spirit hand holder

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

When I grow up I'm not going to be anybody
