Vance Joy - Little Boy Chords

[intro]
Cm  D#/A#  A#

[verse 1]
Cm       D#              A#
 I was only ten years old
Cm                  D#                A#
 Like the back of my hand knew the roads
  Cm                  D#
I swerved my bike and lost control,
 A#               F/A
over the handles in the air
  Cm            D#          A#
a lady who came walking by found
               F/A
me lying there
        N.C.
And the nurse at the hospital said

[chorus 1]
Gm          Cm
Little boy, don't be scared
         A#                 D#
Now your father is waiting in the next room
Gm          Cm
Little boy, don't be sad
         A#
Now your mom's on her way,
          D#                     F/A
you'll be out of here soon, hmm-mmmm
  Cm  D#   A#  F/A
Mmmmm hmm,   hmmm
  Cm  D#   A#  F/A
Mmmmm hmm

[verse 2]
Cm             D#                    A#       F/A
 We drove so slowly through these streets
Cm        D#              A#           F/A
 In the suburbs of our dreams, hmm-mm
   Cm              D#
At night my father closed his eyes,
   A#               F/A
he saw the new car in the drive
   Cm              D#
My mother standing in the doorway,
A#               F/A
Friday night, a smile on her face
        N.C.
And the voice I can hear in my head

[chorus 2]
Gm          Cm
Little boy, don't be scared
        A#                      D#
Now you know we'll be sleeping in the next room
Gm          Cm
Little boy, don't be sad
      A#                  D#
Now tomorrow is as it is comin'
                 F/A
'round soon, hmm-mmmm
  Cm  D#   A#  F/A
Mmmmm hmm,   hmmm
  Cm  D#   A#  F/A
Mmmmm hmm

[bridge]
   Cm          D#
We only need a little space
     A#                  F/A
Just somewhere we could call our place
   Cm              D#
My mother standing in the doorway
A#               F/A
Friday night, a smile on her face
Cm                  D#
These things always start so small
     A#               F/A
With no applause and no drum roll
    Cm             D#
And I came running up the hallway
A#                F/A
See the car turn in the driveway, hmm-hmmm

[outro]
  Gm  D#   A#
Mmmmm hmm
         F/A           Gm         D#   A#
And I'll always be that little boy
         F/A             Gm         D#   A#
And I've always been that little boy
           F/A           Gm         D#   A#
Yeah, I'll always be that little boy
         F/A           Gm         D#   A#
And I'll always be that little boy
