C  
Young child with dreams  

F                         C  
Dream every dream on your own  

C             F  
When children play  

F                     C  
Seems like you end up alone  

C            F  
Papa said he longed to be with you  

              C  
If he had the time  

C                  F                   G  
So you turn to the only friend you can find  

F                 G             F  
    There in your mind  

Chorus  
/* Finger pick the intro riff as you sing - if you can't, the  
   C chords holds up the vocal line                         */  
C  
Shilo, when I was young  

I used to call your name  

When no one else would come  

Shilo you always came  

And we'd play  


Verse  

C  
Young girl with fire 

F                    C  
Something said she understood 

 C                      F  
I wanted to fly 
                       C  
She made me feel like I could 

C   
Held my hand out   

F  
I let her take me  

           C  
Blind as a child  

                  F                    G  
All I know is the way that she made me smile  

F                 G         F  
        She made smile  


Chorus

C                  F   
Had a dream and it filled me with wonder   

         C    F      C    G6 (?)    C  
She had other plans  

                      F                        G          F  
Got to go, she said I'd know that you'd understand  


G        F  
         I understand  


The G6 is trying to mimick the orchestration - give it a try.
