Great song by Neil Finn and Johnny Marr (Smiths)
Comes closest to the original when you keep you pink on G 3rd fret 1st string for Em,
en C chords.
[intro]
I want to turn on the lights
I want to keep your hopes alive
So where do I begin
To help you believe again
Makers of secret planes
Keepers of our last remains
Dream of a holy state
In a nightmare time
You know I meant it well
But who was it meant to help?
Even the child knows you don't waste it
A promise is only given once
And there is no doubt that changes have begun
Well, even a child knows that you can't fake it
As long as the world is waking up
You are free now to recover your heart
[verse]
The stories left to write
The ebb and flow of my life
To justify the end
I'll do everything I can
And it's a dangerous game
I heard you tell someone
That you don't care
But I don't believe the message
And when you sing about love
What are you thinking of?
[chorus]
Even a child knows you don't waste it
As long as the world is waking up
And there is no doubt that changes have begun
Well, even a child knows you don't fake it
A promise is only given once
You are free now to go wherever you want
[bridge]
There's nothing like waking up in some foreign town
And music, the call to prayer
Is wailing out of speakers in the marketplace
The first time
Even a child
(solo)
Even a child knows you don't waste it
A present can always be delivered twice
You are free now to receive the gift of inside
From now on let's be open
All in time, let's breathe in
Am I brave, you're so brave
Am I afraid, no, not afraid
Even the child
