Close My Eyes chords

Intro: [G] [A] x2

[G]I was way - ward[A] child
With the we[G]ight of the world
That I[A] held deep inside
[G]Life was a wind[A]ing road
And I lear[G]ned many things
Little one[A]s shouldn't know

But I clo[G]sed my eyes [A]
Steadied my [G]feet on the ground
Raised my head[A] to the sky
And though time'[G]s rolled by [A]
Still I fe[G]el like that child
As I loo[A]k at the moon
[G]Maybe I grew up
A li[A]ttle too soon

[G] [A] x4

[G]Funny how one can[A] learn
To grow nu[G]mb to the madness
And bloc[A]k it away
[G]I left the worst [A]unsaid
Let it all[G] dissipate
And I try [A]to forget

As I cl[G]osed my eyes [A]
Steadied my [G]feet on the ground
Raised my head[A] to the sky
And though time'[G]s rolled by [A]
Still I fe[G]el like that child
As I loo[A]k at the moon
[G]Maybe I grew up
A li[A]ttle too soon

[G] [A] x2

[F]Nearing the edge [G]
[A]Obvious I almost
[G]Fell right over
[A]A part of me[G]
Will ne[A]ver be quite able
[G]To feel stable [A]
That woman-ch[G]ild falling inside [A]
[G]Was on the verge of fa[A]ding
[G]Thankfully I
Woke up in time [A]

[G]Guardian ange[A]l I
Sail aw[G]ay on an ocean
With you [A]by my side
[G]Orange clo[A]uds roll by
They burn[G] into your image
And you'[A]re still alive

[G]But I closed [A]my eyes
Steadied my [G]feet on the ground
Raised my head[A] to the sky
And though time'[G]s rolled by [A]
Still I fe[G]el like that child
As I loo[A]k at the moon
[G]Maybe I grew up
A li[A]ttle too soon

[A] [G] x4
