Verse 1:
Emaj9   Dmaj9

Somewhere in the back of my mind There’s a thought of my childhood days A desire to be again
A child for a day.
In a world of make-believe
In a world of fantasy
Where every dream comes true And everything’s not real.

Chorus 1:
F#m11   Emaj7   F#m11   Emaj7   Amaj7   D7

Through the eyes of a child
A mountain is really just a mo-hill
And a river is like the ocean
Flowing free.
Looking back at photographs
Of the way it used to be
Memories of long ago
Times I’ll never see.
Of the things I used to do
And the dreams I dreamed I’d be
Of the times I had some fun
Just playing in the sun.

Chorus 2:
F#m11   Emaj7   F#m11   Emaj7   Amaj7   D7

Through the eyes of a child
The sun is a candle slowly burning
And the skies go on forever
Till eternity.

Solo:
Emaj9   Dmaj9

(Repeat Chorus 1)

Outro:
Emaj9   Dmaj9

Flowing Free (Through the eyes of a child)
Flowing Free (Through the eyes of a child)
Flowing Free (Through the eyes of a child)

(Fade out)
