F
Race cars and spaceships
     A
and carnival rides
Dm
Ghosts in the graveyard
     A#m
they come out at night
F              A
These are the wonders
       Dm
of the younger
F
Daydreams of castle and
 A
sad crystal balls
           Dm
While your heroes on posters
      A#m
stand guard on your walls
F              A
These are the wonders
        Dm
of the younger

Chorus:
      F      A
And I wonder why we just
Dm             A#
leave it all behind
      F          A
And I wonder how we could
Dm                A#
all go back right now

F
Werewolves and vampires
    A
are out for the kill
   Dm
If none of them catch you
    A#m
the Bogeyman will
F              A
These are the wonders
       Dm
of the younger
F
Walk in the plank of
   A
an old pirate ship
       Dm
With a fistful of gold
    A#m
and kiss on your lips
F              A
These are the wonders
       Dm
of the younger

Chorus

           Gm
Click your heels
           Dm
close your eyes
        Gm                Dm
Make a wish and wave goodbye
      A#               C
Fly away it's not too late
             D
Change your mind

     F
Now numbers and figures
     A
take up all my time
Dm
How did this much of
   A#m
my life pass me by?
F           A
I miss the wonders
        Dm
of the younger
