[Gm]
When I was young [Ab] it seemed that life was [Gm] so wonderful, [Bb] a miracle, [Ab] oh it was [A] beautiful,
magical.
[Cm] And all the birds in the trees, [Ab] well they'd be singing [Gm] so happily, [Bb]
joyfully, [Ab] oh [A] playfully watching me.
[Cm] And then they showed me a way to [Ab] see how [Gm] to be reasonable, [Bb]
logical, [Ab] oh [A] responsible,
practical.
[Cm] And they showed me a way where [Ab] I could be the [Gm]
decentable, [Bb] clinical, [Ab] oh intellectual,
[A] cynical.
There [Eb] are times when I'm [Cm] asleep, with questions of to-do, for such a [Db] simple [Fm] man.
[Bb] [Ab]
[Eb] Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned?
[Cm] I know it [Ab] sounds absurd, but please [Ab] tell me [Db] who I am.

[C] [Bb] [Fm] I [Cm] said what would you say, [Ab] I'll be coming [Gm] to a logical, [Bb] a liberal, [Fm] oh practical, [F] give
me no, [Cm] won't you try to play with [Ab] me until [Gm] you're acceptable, [Bb]
repectable, [Ab] oh [A] resentable,
effectable.
