Couplet
GRemember when the days were long
And Crolled beneath a deep blue sky
GDidn't have a care in the world
With Cmommy and daddy Dstanding by
But Ghappily ever after fails
And we've been Cpoisoned by these fairy tales
The Glawyers dwell on small details
Since Emdaddy Chad to Dfly
Refrain
Ah Em7but I know a Bm7place where Am7we can go
Em7That's still Cmaj7untouched Dby man
Em7We'll sit and Bm7watch the Am7clouds go by
And the Em7tall Cmaj7grass wave in the Dwind
You can Glay your Dhead back Con the ground
And Em7let your Bm7hair fall Am7all around me
GOffer Dup your Cbest defense
But Em7this is Bm7the end,Am7 Em7This is Cmaj7the end D
Of the GInnocence

But Cnow those skies are threatening
