[E]
My kiss, showing how I was before you even said a word
Could we hurt?
You're so unsought
Won't speak, now just hold me
You won't let up and call me son
I might come back
[B] [E]
[B] [E]
You get out of there, see me just as I am
And once you smile, I'm by a stretch
As well I tried hard to protect you, my same way
Let's play again
It's like you and I
When [A] you see the snow [E] on the grass
It's not from that way
It's a long, [A] long way
[E] Just a short boy
Probably [A] best a quarter [E] boy
We grew up last
It's [A] all too long
[E]
I can't let you sleep
I'm not trying to rush you
But I was here when you ran
[A] And I [E] can't
I won't desert that
I'm not about to hurt
I want you to be what you are
So that's all
I won't make you laugh
When you [A] see the snow on the [E] grass
It's not from that way
It's a long, [A] long way
[E] It's just a short boy
Probably [A] best a quarter [E] boy
We [B] grew up last
[E] I paid no soul [A] at all
[E] [Am]
