Ten years old with thoughts as bold as thoughts can be.

G Dsus4 D Dsus4 D

A vague haze of delirium creeps upon me

G Dsus4 D Dsus4 D

All at once a tall stranger I suddenly see

He's dressed in a silver-sparkled glittering gown.

G D

And his golden beard flows nearly down to the (ground)

Each sensation makes a note in my symphony.

Come on the amazing journey and learn all you should know

His eyes are the eyes that transmit all they know

Sparkle warm crystalline glances to show

He is your leader, he is your guide

G D

On the amazing journey together you'll (ride).
