I am not a child now;
I can take care of my self.
I must n’t let them down now;
must n’t let them see me (F)cry.
I’m (Ab)fine,

I’m too tired to lis ten;
I’m too old to be lieve
all these child ish stor ies.
but There is no such thing as (F)faith
y and (Ab)trust
and pix ie (Eb)dust.
’Cause I try,
(Bb)but it’s so (Ab6)hard to be lieve.
I try,
but I can’t (Eb)see what you see.
I try,
I (Abm)try,
I (Eb)try.
My whole world is chang ing;
I don’t know where to turn.
I can’t leave you wait ing,
but There is stay and watch this (F)faith
y and (Ab)trust
and watch it (Eb)burn.
’Cause I try,
(Bb)but it’s so (Ab6)hard to be lieve.
I try,
but I can’t (Eb)see what you see.
I try,
I (Abm)try,
I (Eb)try.
I (Abm)try.
I (Dbsus2)try and try to (Ab)un der stand the (Bdim7)dis tance in be (Cm)tween
the (Db)love I feel and the (Ab)things I fear and (Abm6)ev ’ry sin gle dream.
I can fi n’lly see it;
now I have to be lieve
all those pre cious stor ies.
All the world is made of (F)faith
and trust
and pix ie (Eb)dust.
So I’ll try,
(Bb)’cause I (Ab6)fi n’lly be lieve.
I’ll (Cm7)try,
’cause I can (Eb)see what you see.
I’ll (Ab)try,
I’ll (Abm)try,
I will (Cm)try.
I’ll (Absus2)try
