Childhood

Em          C
   Everyday's a childhood
G          D
  Everyday's a wild wood
       Em               C
Always learning, always yearning
G          D
  Everyday's a childhood

[Verse 1]
Em               C
Sun in my eyes, spring in my nose
   G                 D
You asked what I remember most
  Em                   C
Songs she sung by my cradle side
 G              D
Father taught me to be kind
  Em                  C
Before I learned the world was hard
   G                D
Beneath the plum tree in the yard
           Em                    
Thinking, first life blossoms and 
   C
then it fruits
         G              D
Thought, "Even earth tastes pretty 
good"

[Verse 2]
  Em               C
Whoever makes the summer bloom
    G                    D
When I grow up, I wanna be like you
            Em               C
I thought, "I love all the things 
you do
         G                  D
"So when I grow up, I wanna be like 
you"
D
         Em               C
But you told me of the cuckoo bird
     G                      D
Who takes the song birds from their 
nests
     Em                   C
And steals their tune before it's 
heard

       G                D
Now I know that sums up life the 
best

[Chorus]
Em              C
'Cause everyday's a childhood
G            D
Oh, everyday's a wild wood
       Em                 C
Always learning,   always yearning
G           D
   Everyday's a childhood

[Verse 3]
Em             C
   Trouble turns up at your door
 G                    D
Posts you heartbreak letters
 Em                           C
The next thing you know, you've 
realised
    G                   D
You've never been much better
    Em             C
But I remember what I loved
G             D
I remember where I'm from
    Em                  C
And I'll keep singing beauty's song
  G                 D
That is where my heart belongs
D

[Chorus]
Em              C
'Cause everyday's a childhood
G            D
Oh, everyday's a wild wood
       Em                 C
Always learning,   always yearning
G           D
   Everyday's a childhood


[Verse 4]
    Em                C
When everything was all brand new
     G              D
That innocence of childhood
       Em                  C
Oh, the gentle spell that loved me 
well
   G               D
Before the cuckoo rang the bell

[Verse 5]
         Em                    C
Well, if love's the sun and truth's 
the rain
       G               D
Then mercy seasons growing pains
        Em                 C
Well, things can leave an ugly stain
     G               D
But every day, I'm young again
D D

[Chorus]
Em              C
'Cause everyday's a childhood
G            D
Oh, everyday's a wild wood
       Em                 C
Always learning,   always yearning
G            D
Oh, everyday's a childhood
Em             C
Yeah, everyday's a childhood
G            D
Oh, everyday's a wild wood
       Em                 C
Always learning,   always yearning
G            D
Oh, everyday's a childhood
