Love For a Child
Jason Mraz

F There's a picture on my kitchen wall Am Looks like Jesus and his friends involved D Gm There's a party getting started in the yard Gm A#m F Am Dm There's a couple getting steamy in the car parked in the drive Gm Csus4 C Was I too young to see this with my eyes? F By the pool last night, apparently Am The chemicals weren't mixed properly D Gm You hit your head and then forgot your name Gm A#m F Am Dm And then you woke up at the bottom by the drain Gm Csus4 C And now your altitude and memory's a shame F Gm7 Am7 Gm7 What about taking this empty cup and filling it up F Gm7 With a little bit more of some innocence Am7 Gm7 F I haven't had enough, it's probably because when you're young A7 A# A#m7 It's okay to be easily ignored A#m7 (D C F-walk-up notes on the F string) I like to believe it was all about F love for a child Am And when the house was left in shambles D Gm Who was there to handle all the broken bits of glass Gm A#m F Am Dm Was it mom who put my dad out on his ass or the other way around Gm Csus4 C Well I'm far too old to care about that now F Gm7 Am7 Gm7 What about taking this empty cup and filling it up F Gm7 With a little bit more of innocence Am7 Gm7 F I haven't had enough, it's probably because when you're young A7 A# A#m7 It's okay to be easily ignored A#m7 (D C F-walk-up notes on the F string) I'd like to believe it was all about F love for a child D# Gm F Am It's kinda nice to work the floor since the divorce D# Gm F I've been enjoying both my Christmases and my birthday cakes D# Gm F Am And taking drugs and making love at far too young an age D# and they never check to see my grades C C/D## F What a fool I'd be to start complaining now F Gm7 Am7 Gm7 What about taking this empty cup and filling it up F Gm7 With a little bit more of innocence Am7 Gm7 F I haven't had enough, it's probably because when you're young A7 A# A#m7 It's okay to be easily ignored A#m7 (D C F-walk-up notes on the F string) I'd love to believe it's all about F love for a child ( A# C C# F ) F It was all about love...
