Even A Child

Great song by Neil Finn and Johnny Marr (Smiths) Comes closest to the original when you keep you pink on G 3rd fret 1st string for Em en C chords. [intro] ---Cadd9 I want to turn on the lights I want to keep your hopes alive So where do I begin To help you believe again Makers of secret planes Keepers of our last remains Dream of a holy state In a nightmare time You know I meant it well But who was it meant to help? Even the child knows you don’t waste it A promise is only given once And there is no doubt that changes have begun Well even a child knows that you can’t fake it As long as the world is waking up You are free now to recover your heart [verse] The stories left to write The ebb and flow of my life To justify the end I’ll do everything I can And it’s a dangerous game I heard you tell someone That you don’t care But I don’t believe the message And when you sing about love What are you thinking of? [chorus] Even a child knows you don’t waste it As long as the world is waking up And there is no doubt that changes have begun Well even a child knows you don’t fake it A promise is only given once You are free now to go wherever you want [bridge] There’s nothing like waking up in some foreign town And music the call to prayer Is wailing out of speakers in the marketplace The first time Even a child (solo) Even a child knows you don’t waste it A present can always be delivered twice You are free now to receive the gift of inside From now on let’s be open All in time let’s breathe in Am I brave you’re so brave Am I afraid no not afraid Even the child
