Capo 3
Verse 1
[Am] I was [C]only ten years [G]old
[Am] Like the back of [C]my hand knew the [G]roads
I [Am]swerved my bike and [C]lost control, o[G]over the handles [D/F#]in the air
A [Am]lady who came [C]walking by [G]found me lying there [D/F#]
And the nurse at the hospital said
Chorus 1
[Em]Little boy, [Am]don't be scared
Now your [G]father is waiting [C]in the next room
[Em]Little boy, [Am]don't be sad
Now your [G]mom's on her way, you'll be [C]out of here soon, hmm-[D/F#]hmm-mmmm

Mm[Am]Mmmmm [C]hmm [G] [D/F#]
Verse 2
[Am] We drove so [C]slowly through these [G]streets [D/F#]
[Am] In the [C]suburbs of our [G]dreams, hmm-[D/F#]hmm-mm
At [Am]night my father [C]closed
his eyes, he [G]saw the new car [D/F#]in the drive
My [Am]mother standing [C]in the doorway,
[G]Friday night, a [D/F#]smile on her face
And the voice I can hear in my head
Chorus 2
[Em]Little boy, [Am]don't be scared
Now you [G]know we'll be sleeping [C]in the next room
[Em]Little boy, [Am]don't be sad
Now to[G]tomorrow is as it is [C]comin' 'round soon, hmm-[D/F#]hmm-mmmm
Mm[Am]Mmmmm [C]hmm,[G]hmm, [D/F#]hmmm
Mm[Am]Mmmmm [C]hmm [G] [D/F#]
Bridge
We [Am]only need a [C]little space
Just [G]somewhere we could [D/F#]call our place
My [Am]mother standing [C]in the doorway
[G]Friday night, a [D/F#]smile on her face
[Am]These things always [C]start so small
With [G]no applause and [D/F#]no drum roll
And [Am]I came running [C]up the hallway
[G]See the car turn [D/F#]in the driveway, hmm-hmmm
Outro
Mm[Em]Mmmmm [C]hmm [G]
And I'll [D/F#]always be that [Em]little boy [C] [G]
And I've [D/F#]always been that [Em]little boy [C] [G]
Yeah, I'll [D/F#]always be that [Em]little boy [C] [G]
And I'll [D/F#]always be that [Em]little boy [C] [G]
