Vance Joy – Little Boy Chords

I was only ten years old
Like the back of my hand knew the roads
I swerved my bike and lost control, over the handles in the air
A lady who came walking by found me lying there
And the nurse at the hospital said

Little boy, don’t be scared
Now your father is waiting in the next room
Little boy, don’t be sad
Now your mom’s on her way, you’ll be out of here soon, hmm-mm
Mmm hmm,hmmm, mmm hmm

We drove so slowly through these streets
In the suburbs of our dreams, hmm-mm
At night my father closed
his eyes, he saw the new car in the drive
My mother standing in the doorway,
Friday night, a smile on her face
And the voice I can hear in my head

Little boy, don’t be scared
Now you know we’ll be sleeping in the next room
Little boy, don’t be sad
Now tomorrow is as it is coming around soon, hmm-mm
Mmm hmm,hmmm, mmm hmm

We only need a little space
Just somewhere we could call our place
My mother standing in the doorway
Friday night, a smile on her face

These things always start so small
With no applause and no drum roll
And I came running up the hallway
See the car turn in the driveway, hmm-hmmm

Mmm hmm
And I’ll always be that little boy
And I’ve always been that little boy
Yeah, I’ll always be that little boy
And I’ll always be that little boy
