Capo 3rd fret
[no chord]
Ah, ah ah ah, we are children of the world - watching every day go by
[no chord]
Changes my life, changes your life - keeps us all anticipating
[no chord]
Ah, ah ah ah, we are searchers of the truth, every man's a boy deep down
[no chord] Dmaj7
Gotta say it how you mean it - there ain't no easy way
Like a [A]bird in the [A6]wind, like a [G6/A]tree in the [Gmaj7/A]storm
Like the [A]breath of a [A6]child from the [G6/A]moment he's born
To the [A]very last [A6]day when the [A]curtains are [G6/A]drawn
[Bm]Ah, ah ah [F#m]ah, we are [Bm]children of the [F#m]world -[Em] asking every [A]question [Dmaj7]why
From [Bm]arrival to [G6/A]survival - just to make it worth the waiting
[Bm]Ah, ah ah [F#m]ah, we are [Bm]faces in the [F#m]night -[Em] watching every [A]day go [Dmaj7]by
Changes [Bm]my life, changes [G6/A]your life - there ain't no ea[Dmaj7]sy way
In the [A]back of your [A6]mind there is [G6/A]always a [Gmaj7/A]mark
There's a [A]wandering [A6]solo a[G6/A]lone in the dark
You can [A]keep it fo[A6]rever or [A]tear it a[G6/A]part

[up one half step, but no chord]
Ah, ah ah ah, we are children of the world - watching every day go by
