[G] [D]
[F#m] [Bm]
[G] And it [D] was morning, and [F#m] I found myself mourning for [Bm] a childhood that I thought [G] had disappeared.
[D] I looked out the window, [F#m] and I saw a magpie in a rainbow.
[Bm] The rain had gone, I'm not [G] alone.
I turned to the mirror, [E] I saw you, [A] [D] a child [Bm] that wants love.
[A] [E] The child before me broke his heart, [D]
[Bm] [A] but [E] I believe we're in [D] love.
[F#m] Hey you, [Bm] surprised, more [G] than surprised to find [D] the answers to the questions [F#m] were always in your own eyes.
[Bm] Do you realize that you [G] could have gone back to her, [D] but that would only be [F#m] replacing all the problems that you [Bm] ever knew [G] so untrue.
[D] For she's got to carry [F#m] on with her life, [Bm] and you've got to carry on [G] with yours.
[E] So I say, [A] [D] ask me, [Bm] I can do anything.
[A] [E] I've spent a child, but the only thing that's [A] placed [D] one direction, [Bm] and not one direction,
[A] let [E] me see your childhood's end.

You [D] found the leading light of destiny, [F#m] burning in the ashes [Bm] of your memory.
[G] You want to change the world.
[D] You've resigned yourself to die a [F#m] broken rebel.
[Bm] But that was looking backward, now you've [G] found the light.
[E] You [A] were [D] [Bm] the sloth, [A] [E] the child, [D]
[Bm] the heart.
