F                 Dm                 Bb
It's such a clever innocence with which you do your sorcery
F                 Am7              Bb             C
As if somehow the years just bow and let that young girl go free
Bb            C                F                Bb           F
I thought I was a child until you turned and smiled
Bb        Am        Gm           C             A7/C#
I thought I knew where I was going until I heard your laughter flowing
Dm                Bb        F        Bb          F
And came upon the wisdom in your eyes
C C/Bb Am7 Gm7(11) C
Surprise!

F                Bb
I've spent my whole life running 'round
F                Bb
Chasing songs from town to town
F           Am               Bb     C
Thinking I'd be free so long as I never let love slow me down
Bb               C            F         Bb            F
So lonely and so wild until you turned and smiled
Bb              Am7
By now I should have long been gone
Gm            C         A7/C#
But here I am still looking on
Dm           Bb           F
As if I didn't know which way to run

As if you know how it feels to never be who you wanted to be

I thought I was a child until you turned and smiled

Alone within the boundaries of my mind
