Jason Mraz - Love for a Child: chords

           A
There's a picture on my kitchen wall
            C#m
Looks like Jesus and his friends involved
          F#                           Bm
There's a party getting started in the yard
          Bm              Dm            A        C#m       F#m
There's a couple getting steamy in the car parked in the drive
   Bm                               Esus4   E
Was I too young to see this with my eyes?

By the pool last night, apparently
The chemicals weren't mixed properly
You hit your head and then forgot your name
And then you woke up at the bottom by the drain
And now your altitude and memory's a shame

Chorus:
A           Bm7        C#m7           Bm7
What about taking this empty cup and filling it up
       A                       Bm7
With a little bit more of some innocence
   C#m7                    Bm7                            A
I haven't had enough, it's probably because when you're young
      C#7        D       Dm7
It's okay to be easily ignored
Dm7
I like to believe it was all about
             A
love for a child

And when the house was left in shambles
Who was there to handle all the broken bits of glass
Was it mom who put my dad out on his ass or the other way around
Well I'm far too old to care about that now

Chorus

G           Bm                A                C#m
It's kinda nice to work the floor since the divorce
             G                Bm                        A
I've been enjoying both my Christmases and my birthday cakes
     G                Bm             A              C#m
And taking drugs and making love at far too young an age
          G
and they never check to see my grades
        E                      E/G#      A
What a fool I'd be to start complaining now

Chorus
