verse 1
D
little child , i have found
F#m
if i stood up and looked around
G D
i’d see a brand new face staring right back at me
D
i believe , i Am sure
F#m
that i’m taller than i was before
G D
building a brand new bridge into sincerity

chorus
G A
but it’s at times like this we must learn to grow
D G
throw a penny for my children , they are going down
A D
when the light shines down much brighter , many souls are found
D G
and i can’t believe what they’re saying in the overground
A A# [ break ]
throw a penny for my children going down

A#maj7 [ ch ] A#7/G# [ /Ch ]
at night i turn my face into the wind
