Verse 1:
C                          F
  Tell me where and when, how and why.
Am                               F
Share with me a tale about your past.
C                             F
  Tell me please because I’m wondering.
Am                               Em
Have you always been so kind at heart, like you are today.

C                             F
  Sometimes I dream about us way back when,
Am                                 F
spending all those endless days together.
C                           F
  But if I’d known you when we were young
Am                                       Em
I wouldn’t have the chance to take this part
F                     C
  of learning your heart.

Chorus:
C                    F                   Am         G
  I hope it takes a lifetime, Oh such a long time.
                      C
Please tell me everything.
C                    F                   Am         G
  I hope it takes a lifetime, Oh such a long time.

C                              F
  I still remember when I was five years old,
        Am                             F
though most of those memories are now gone.
C                                          F
  Way back then it wasn’t all that bad to spend the day in pouring rain.
Am                            Em                 F
Seems that every yesterday I spent was ment for me.
Today you’re all I see


Chorus:
C                    F                   Am         G
  I hope it takes a lifetime, Oh such a long time.
                      C
Please tell me everything.
C                    F                   Am         G     F (only one strum)
  I hope it takes a lifetime, Oh such a long time.


  Am  G         Am    G   Am       C
  We are always in a hurry growing up
     G         Am                 F
and we always want the things we haven’t got.
   G               Am          F          C
I fear, you won’t see me as I am, half a man.
    G            Am                       F
I fear being a grown up instead of acting one.
C            F#
   Just let me pretend.

Chorus:
C                    F                   Am         G
  I hope it takes a lifetime, Oh such a long time.
                      C
Oh god I just can't wait
C                    F                   Am         G
  I hope it takes a lifetime, Oh such a long time.
