Verse 1
D/F# G D/F# G I used to be invisible Am D A shape changing magic kid D/F# G D/F# G I could move at the speed of thought Am D And frequently I did D G But my greatest accomplishment C C/B Am Was a slow and looping glide D G I saw the tops of everything Am D/F# G Back when I could fly
Chorus
D Cadd9 Cadd9/G I'd take my daily nap Em Cadd9 On the highest leafy branch D Cadd9 Cadd9/G And follow shooting stars Em Cadd9 On a comet's fiery lance G/B G/C I was quite the prodigy G/B G/C When I owned the sky G/B G/C I never thought I'd have to walk Am D/F# Back when I could fly
Verse 2
D/F# G D/F# G Keep your eye on the ball Am D Your feet on solid ground D/F# G D/F# G Always sit up straight and tall Am D And never make a sound D G In just a few short years C C/B Am I learned not to be a child D G And I forgot the things Am D/F# G I had when I was wild

Verse 3
D/F# G D/F# G Now, my child, you'll learn arithmetic Am D Coloring and sports D/F# G D/F# G You'll have a flare for nouns and verbs Am D And be late with book reports D G But in spite of all the rules C C/B Am That bind your wings so tight D G I hope you won't forget about Am D/F# G The days when you could fly
Chorus
D Cadd9 G I'd take my daily nap Em C On the highest leafy branch D Cadd9 G And follow shooting stars Em C On a comet's fiery lance G/B G/C I was quite the prodigy G/B G/C When I owned the sky G/B G/C I never thought I'd have to walk Am Bm Em Never had to try Am D/F# G Back when I could fly
