G                               C 
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

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 
          Am7  D       G 
It was foreve--r everyday 
 
 
G  C  G  C  
 
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 
    C              G          C   Am7 G 
But do we have to wait 'till the------n
