I knew this kid, his name was Michael
Em D C
He was only four years old
G C
We sat on a rock and started talkin'
Em D C
And he told me things I didn't know
G C
He said yesterday he was an Indian
Em D C
And how he played with buffalo
G C
Well I got a sense that he had been there
Em D C
And he made me really wanna go
C
Remember waitin' all year for December
G
Thought God was cryin' when it rained
Em D
And that the stars were fireflies
C G
Dreams were real and big as life
G C
I was tuckin' in my little girl
Em D C
She held my hand and we said a prayer
G C
I prayed, "Bless Grandma with the angels."
Em D C
And she said, "Hey Mom, she's standin' over there."
G C
Well, I couldn't see her but I don't doubt it
Em D C
Maybe 'cause I'm older and less wise
G C
What if Heaven?s all around us
Em D C
But only seen through children?s eyes
CHORUS
C G C
They say when you're old you're a child again
CHORUS
G C G C G C
Forever... I knew this kid, his name was Michael
