E

"wished i was a giant", said
  E/Eb
"man get off the street!"
C#m
spoken like a traffic cop
  B
cronies at his feet
A 		            F#
turned on his radio
           A       E
and picked up the noise

age rules with reason
      E/Eb
and who's to disagree?
 C#m                     B
not mr. spit with his abrupt delivery
 A 		            F#
and mr. intelligent
           A            E
is just a wannabe like me

E     A B    -4x-

E

and who makes the breakfast?
         E/Eb
and who gasses the truck?
 C#m
the same little bee that stung the bull
 B
and caused the bull to buck
 A 		               F#
only a matter of time
           A       E
before we have to pay

if you were 10 years younger 
    E/Eb 
and i was a sunbeam
C#m
"wished i was a giant" said
  B
"man, it's just a dream"
 A 		              F#
only a matter of time
           A       E
before we have to pay
have to pay!

E     A B    -4x-

E  E/B  C#m  B  A  F#m  A 

E     A B    -4x-
