----------------- VERSE 1: ----------------

        [A]                 [Bm]
When I think about my early childhood ..
      [G]                 [A]
I really couldn't ask for more
  
   [A]             [Bm]
Everything so simple ..
      [G]                [A]
The world alight with wonder

----------------- VERSE 2: ----------------
  
           [A]            [D]
When the lightning came, we'd shelter from it    x2
          [G]       [D]              [E]
In your room...... we were safe and warm

----------------- CHORUS HINT ? ----------------

               [E]        [D]
And there you were ......

----------------- VERSE 3: ----------------

       [A]                    [Bm]
When I think about my early childhood
     [G]                  [A]
I really couldn't ask for a better friend

      [A]          [Bm]
Playing with all the other children,
     [G]              [A]
Laughing and a jumping not a care in the world


----------------- TRANSITION: ----------------

  [Am]         [Dm]
Oh until, .... until
  [Em]         [Dm]
You moved away

----------------- VERSE 4: (optional) ----------------

   [F]                 [C]
It all got a little complicated
 [F]                   [C]
My life; her life, such a shame she couldn't stay
             [E]                  [G]
The year had past, I still thought of her,
             [E]                  [G]
When would I see my oldest friend again.


----------------- VERSE 5: (optional) ----------------

*pause*

    [Bm]*stop*    [G]*stop*
And suddenly,     suddenly 
 [E]            [A]
Thre you were again
  [Bm]                  [G]
Beautiful open smile, beautiful big wide eyes,
 [E]                                 [A]
My heart skipped a beat.... this was different than before


----------------- CHORUS: ----------------

              [E]       [D]
And there you were ......
   [G]             [A]      
Sitting close beside me

     [E]       [D]
With me......
  [G]              [A]      
Staring into your eyes

     [E]       [D]
And I wish I knew
  [G]                 [A]      
Exactly what you were thinking

----------------- VERSE 6: ----------------

   [E]               [C]
I looked at you and said
      [D]                [E]
I've missed you all this time
        [E]                      [C]               [G]
You've grown into this beautiful woman | You're my oldest friend and yet
            [Am]              [D]
You make me nervous when you smile

----------------- CHORUS: ----------------

              [E]       [D]
And there you were ......
   [G]             [A]      
Sitting close beside me

     [E]       [D]
With me......
  [G]              [A]      
Staring into your eyes

        [E]       [D] *hard*  
And then she kissed me.... 
[G]         [A]
........... .........

       [E]       [D] *hard*  
Oh yeah she kissed me.... 
[G]         [A]

[E]              [D]
Bah,la,la,la,la.. Bah,la,la,la,la..
[G]         [A] 
Bah,la,la,la,la.. Bah,la,la,la,la

        [E]                   [D]
*fast* Moon beams, fairy tails, all my fears gone away
        [G]                                  [A]
