{start_of_verse: Verse 1}
[Dm] I'm [C]just [Bb]thinkin' about the [Cadd2]child in me that I'm sometimes feeling [Dm]inside
[C]and I'm [Bb]figuring out just [Cadd2]what it is that makes me feel so [Dm]small
[C]is it [Bb]you, that hurts me when I [Cadd2]give myself every day and every [Dm]night
[C]am I [Bb]too blind to see that it [Cadd2]doesn't work out
did I really ask too much of you [BbM7]baby

{end_of_chorus}
{start_of_verse: Verse 2}
[Dm] [C]as I [Bb]search for an answer, I see the [Cadd2]clear blue sky
and I know that you're the one to [Dm]blame
[C]and I [Bb]feel so naïve when you[Cadd2] say that our love, to you was just a [Dm]game
[C]I [Bb]dream, my dream, I'm [Cadd2]sane, I'm insane
[Dm] [C]oh, [Bb]please don't, please don't [Cadd2]speak to me that way [BbM7]
