Lyrics

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 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

to (Eb)fly.
