F#m

[Verse]

A E A F#m

Far away in the light of day

A D Bm E

When we as children played

A E A F#m

Prone to run in the setting sun

A Bm A

And slowly fade away

[Chorus]

Bm A F#m

Where, where did we go, oh

Bm A E

When we lost our shadows?

Bm A F#m

I'll fly through your window

Bm E

If you tell me a story

[Verse]

A E A F#m

Of long lost boys and their wooden toys

A D Bm E

And mermaids by the sea

A E A F#m

Pixie dust and a gust of wind

A D A

To sail us through our dreams

[Chorus]

Bm A F#m

Where, where did we go, oh

Bm A E

When we lost our shadows?

Bm A F#m

I'll fly through your window

Bm E

If you tell me a story

[Bridge]

Bm A

Of why we must all grow up

D E Bm A

To the applause of society's mascarade

D E

I find it odd

[Chorus]

Bm A F#m

Where, where did we go, oh

Bm A E

When we lost our shadows?

Bm A F#m

I'll fly through your window

Bm E A

If you tell me a story now
