[Verse]
C                                    
He's got scary eyes and gritted teeth
C                                     
And he's waiting there just underneath
G                                 
Your blue bunk bed while you sleep
G                                         
And he's in your head not just your dreams
    F                             
And I know he feels so real to you
G                                
But if I could tell you the truth
C                 G              Am  
I'd say that he's not worth your time
G                 F    Gsus4
He's just in your mind ■    


[Chorus]
C       
Some day
F                   
There'll be monsters
C       
Some day
F                   
There'll be problems
Am       
Right now


[Verse]
Gsus4      F                             
Count your blessings and your lucky stars
    C                     
And be right where you are
Dm                              F      
'cause you got all this time to breathe
G                      C 
'til you grow up to be me
F     C                                     
■ You got skinny legs and a heart that beats
F     C                          
Sunny skies as far as you can see
G                                      
But you make clouds that bring the rain
G                      
Spinning in a hurricane
         F                                 
But it's not your story it's not your worry
G                                    
Slow down boy 'cause there's no hurry
C           G          Am  
Sure as the ticking of time
          G                      F   Gsus4 G
You'll be old in the blink of an eye ■     ■


[Chorus]
C       
Some day
F                   
There'll be monsters
C       
Some day
F                   
There'll be problems
Am       
Right now


[Verse]
Gsus4                F                   
Count your blessings and your lucky stars
    C                     
And be right where you are
       Dm                               F
'cause you got all this time to breathe ■
G                      Am
'til you grow up to be me


[Bridge]
          E7            
You don't see what I see
E         C         G             Am  
But right under the tears on your face
   G       F     Gsus4
Is amazing grace ■    


[Chorus]
C    F    
Some ■ day
         F          
There'll be monsters
C       
Some day
F           C       
There'll be problems
Am       
Right now
Gsus4                F                   
Count your blessings and your lucky stars
    C                     
And be right where you are
Dm                              F      
There won't be all this time to breathe
Gsus4                    
When you grow up to be me
