[B]
[E] [B]
To wake up in [F#] the morning, [G#m] to the quiet hour of [E] the [B] cold
And to hear [F#] Betsy talking to [B] herself
And to hear Bill [F#] go down [G#m] from the kitchen to [E] our desk
[B] It makes me feel [F#] like everything [B] was fine
[F#m] I'm a four-year-old [G#m] boy, [E] who's here [B] I'm gonna stay
[F#] I've searched for [G#m] all the reasons [E] why I should [B] go away
But I have not [F#]
discerned the [G#m] walls of my rented [E] room
[B] So I'll just take my chances [F#] with those solid [B] walls of mine
Following the [F#] sidewalk that [G#m] leads from the school to [E] the shore
[B] In the yard where [F#] the trees are placed [B] and grass
Kicking leaves that [F#] fall around me, [G#m] while someone says,
[E] Paint the hills, [B]
cause I'll never [F#] need to [B] feel at home
[F#] This I [G#m] do [E] as I'm handed [B] down with pride
[F#] But folks are [G#m] forced to live here, [F#] [E] taking hardships [B] on the stride
So I'll compliment [F#] her beauty, [G#m] close off my [E] goodbyes
[B] And I'll say, take my chances [F#] with those solid [B] walls of mine
How can I leave [F#] those mornings [G#m] with the sunrise on [E] the coast
[B] And the gold-like [F#] flies surrounding clay [B] from the forest
That are gone and [F#] wrapped in rainbows [G#m] in the evening [E] after fall
[B] The ocean [F#] smells of perfume through [B] my soul
[F#] [G#m]
Reach [E] to [B] me just now
[F#] For the [G#m] jail people [E] turn to stormy, [B] faithless crowds
So I'll do [F#] without the riches [G#m] and the leather and [E] the noise
[B] And I'll say, take my chances [F#] with those solid [B] walls of mine
[F#]
[G#m] [E]
