The Child

	  		
E                                              B 
  You look so quiet, after all I wish I could be too 
E                                              B 
  You have forgotten every tear that I've cried for you 
E                            G#m 
  You never taught me not to give up 
           B                    E 
You never taught me what is fair 
                 B 
When I was scared 

E 
  You took it all for granted 
                B 
Everything you had 
E 
  You thought that you were lucky 
                 B 
But the luck is not enough 
E                             G#m 
  You never thought about the future 
              B                      E 
And now it's late to remember the past 
                  B 
It happened so fast 

E                      G#m 
  'Cause I am the child 
            B 
I am the child 
E                      G#m 
  'Cause I am the child 
            B 
I am the child 

E                        G#m 
  Tell me that I'm gonna make it 
             B                         E 
That when I get there I'm gonna be ready 
                           B 
Don't try to hide, tell me it's all right 
                   F#                     B 
That everything is fine 'cause I am the child 

E                                                   B 
  You used to fear the consequence of being yourself 
E                                              B 
  You didn't want to change and now it's all a shame 
E                         G#m                  B 
  You blamed everyone for your mess and now we all feel this bitterness 
E                           B 
  Well now I know it's not fair 

E             G#m 
  I am a child 
              B 
I am the child 
E               G#m 
  I am the child 
              B 
I am the child 

E                        G#m 
  Tell me that I'm gonna make it 
             B                         E 
That when I get there I'm gonna be ready 
                           B 
Don't try to hide, tell me it's all right 
                   F#                     B 
That everything is fine 'cause I am the child
