Whew..this will go down in the record books as one of the hardest
songs ever to pick out! I tried to get it as close as possible
to the complex piano chords on the recording.
**Play with a capo on 4 to match album key**
G D/F# Em D C
Do you remember me, I sat upon your knee
C G/B Am Am7 D
I wrote to you with childhood fantasies
G D/F# Em D C
Well, I'm all grown-up now and still need help somehow
C G/B Am Am7 D
I'm not a child but my heart still can dream
G D/F# Em D C
So here's my lifelong wish, my grown-up Christmas list
C G/B Am Am7 D
Not for myself but for a world in need

No more lives torn apart

That wars would never start
C#m A B
And time would heal all hearts

And everyone would have a friend

G D/F# Em D C
As children we believed the grandest sight to see
C G/B Am Am7 D
Was something lovely wrapped beneath our tree

Well Heaven surely knows that packages and bows
C G/B Am Am7 D
Can never heal a hurting human soul

What is this illusion called the innocence of youth

Maybe only in our blind belief can we ever find the truth
(key change)
