Cm D# A# I was only ten years old Cm D# A# Like the back of my hand knew the roads Cm D# A# F/A I swerved my bike and lost control, over the handles in the air Cm D# A# F/A A lady who came walking by found me lying there And the nurse at the hospital said Chorus: Gm Cm Little boy, don't be scared A# D# Now your father is waiting in the next room Gm Cm Little boy, don't be sad A# D# F/A Now your mom's on her way, you'll be out of here soon, hmm-mmmm We drove so slowly through these streets In the suburbs of our dreams At night my father closed his eyes He saw the new car in the drive My mother standing in the doorway Friday night, a smile on her face And the voice I can hear in my head Chorus: "Little boy, don't be scared Now you know we'll be sleeping in the next room Little boy, don't be sad Now tomorrow is as it is coming 'round soon" Cm D# We only need a little space A# F/A Just somewhere we could call our place Cm D# My mother standing in the doorway A# F/A Friday night, a smile on her face Cm D# These things always start so small A# F/A With no applause and no drum roll Cm D# And I came running up the hallway A# F/A See the car turn in the driveway, hmm-hmmm F/A Gm D# A# And I'll always be that little boy F/A Gm D# A# And I've always been that little boy F/A Gm D# A# Yeah, I'll always be that little boy F/A Gm D# A# And I'll always be that little boy You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA  A#  Cm  D#  F  Gm  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
