[Verse 1]
F                 Am
 I once read a story
        Dm            G
About a world full of love
F               Am
 Of freedom and glory
   Dm               F         G
As seen through the eyes of a child

[Verse 2]
F                Am
 We learned to believe
         Dm
That the earth was all
F         G
Ocean and ground
F               Am
 Though we were soon to see
           Dm
That there wasn't
 F            G
Enough to go 'round

[Bridge]
      C
I saw words and wars
          F
Though my books had told me
   Dm            F        G
My life would be one long song
G#
Man make laws
         C
Although laws make man
     F
So uncertain
     G#
So uncertain what's right
           D# C# G# C
And what's wroooong

[Verse 3]
F                 Am
 Confused without reason
Dm                   G
Stumbling helplessly day by day
F                Am
 It was all so deceiving
         Dm
For that child was me
      G                      C    F  Am
And I can't find the book anymore
         Dm        F
For that child was me
      G                      C    F  Am
And I can't find the book anymore
         Dm        F
For that child was me
      G                      C
And I can't find the book anymore
