My someday coming child,

Am C G D
And horse and buggy sounds outside.
CHORUS

Verse
Am C G
The heroes, selfish fools -
Am C D
They only want their freedom.

And we are all shock numb

And watch the shock increasing.
Am C G D
And shame is something old, outgrown.

My too self-conscious stumblings,

My running from the phone,

My fears

Because I can be very strong.
D G
Say I can, say I can.
Am C G
There is so much to believe in.

There is hope, my daydream child.
