Verse 1

E             F#m
   And I will stroll the merry way
             A6             Emaj7 A6 E
and jump the hedges first
             F#m
I will drink clear,
                 A6                   Emaj7 A6 E
clean water for to quench my thirst
        F#m
I'll go watch the ferry-boats
   A6               Emaj7 A6 E
and I'll get high
      F#m
On the bluer ocean
            A6            Emaj7 A6 E
against the water's sky
       F#m
I will walk and talk
          A6                   Emaj7 A6 E
in gardens all wet with rain
        F#m                      A6          Emaj7 A6
I will never, ever, ever grow so old again

        F#m               A
I shall drive my chariot down
                       A G#m F#m E
your streets and cry
           F#m             A
'Hey, it's me tonight I'm dynamite
                       A G#m F#m E
and I don't know why'
              F#m
And you shall take me strongly
   A                 A G#m F#m E
in your arms again
     F#m
Alas still wonder if
       A               A G#m F#m E
I ever felt the pain
         F#m
We shall walk and talk
           A
In gardens all misty and wet with rain
               F#m
I shall never, ever, ever
        A             A G#m F#m
grow so cold again.

I shall raise my hand up

into the night,
                A G#m F#m E
to the night sky
              F#m
well you count the stars
              A                 A G#m F#m E
that are shining in your eye
        F#m                         A
Just to dig it all an' not to wonder
                     A G#m F#m E
that would be fine
        F#m
Be satisfied
                A                  A G#m F#m E
not to read in between the lines
