(E minor) (F sharp minor) (G major) (A major) (D major) You're like a baby,
(G major) I'm like a set of (D major) blocks you got for a toy (G major)

(D major) that gives you joy (G major)
(D major) Then you change your (G major) mind and
you start (D major) to destroy (G major) me (E minor)

And (A major) all my dreams (G major) of (E minor) be ing yours
are crumbed to the (A major) ground
