[Intro]
Gbm A B7 E Gbm A E
■   ■ ■  ■ ■   ■ ■


[Verse]
Gbm                            
And I will stroll the merry way
A                        
And jump the hedges first
E            Gbm            
■ And I will drink the clear
                   A                Gbm7
Clean water for to quench my thirst ■   
E     Gbm                         
■ And I shall watch the ferryboats
    A                E
And they'll get high ■
Gbm             
On a bluer ocean
A                      E
Against tomorrow's sky ■
    Gbm                  A        
And I will never grow so old again
E     Gbm                 
■ And I will walk and talk
   A                        
In gardens all wet with rain
E    A       E     A E            
■ Oh ■ sweet thing ■ ■ sweet thing
A                          E
My my my my my sweet thing ■
      Gbm                   
And I shall drive my chariot
A                        
Down your streets and cry
E Gbm             A       
■ Hey it's me I'm dynamite
                      E
And I don't know why' ■
Gbm                           
And you shall take me strongly
A                  E
In your arms again ■
Gbm                A       
■   And I will not remember
     A                   
That I even felt the pain
E Gbm                   
■ We shall walk and talk
           A                           E
In gardens all misty and wet with rain ■
Gbm   Gbm7       A          
And I will never never never
                  E
Grow so old again ■
A              E A          
Oh sweet thing ■ sweet thing
E                      A    
■ My my my my my sweet thing
E Gbm                 A      
■ And I will raise my hand up
               A       
Into the night time sky
E   Gbm           A    
And ■   count the stars
                       E Gbm
That's shining in your ■ eye
                       A            
Just to dig it all an' not to wonder
                 E
That's just fine ■
Gbm                  
And I'll be satisfied
A                      Gbm       E
Not to read in between the lines ■
Gbm                     
And I will walk and talk
A                           
In gardens all wet with rain
E            Gbm             A   
■ And I will never ever ever ever
            E     A
Grow so old again ■


[Chorus]

[Outro]
E A  E A E       A                  
■ Oh ■ ■ ■ sweet ■ thing sweet thing
E         A                         
Sugarbaby ■ with your champagne eyes
    E N.C.                
And ■ your saintlike smile
