Oh well Hi, Hey there, Hello. Have you got some place to go? 
C                              G 
I've got some time and I would love to take you out. 
C 
I've got two nickels to my name.  
F                                                       C               G               C 
Well hey, my story sounds the same, but I'll find some way to show you what life's all about. 
C 
Oh we could take a walk downtown. 
F 
No, let's search for higher ground. 
C                                                 G 
We'll count the stars, and clouds and howl at the moon. 
C                                                  F 
I hear the rich folks come here too, cause' it's such a lovely view 
C                            G                C 
And when the sun decides to rise it'll be too soon. 

F                         C 
Oooooh Oooooh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh (Repeat x2) 

C                               F 
Oh my blood may run red but the thoughts in my head,  
C                                        G 
They are blue, they are purple, they are gold. (They are gold!) 
C                                       F 
And though there may come a day where my hair it turns grey,  
C                    G                    C 
But my soul, oh, my soul, will never grow old. 
C                                F 
See I'm not skin and bones. I am sunshine and snow  
C                                   G 
On this ever-changing earth that we know. (That we know) 
C                                  F 
I'll melt into a stream. I will glisten and gleam. 
C                      G           C 
I'll float on but I'll never grow old. (Repeat)
