 G    Am               D          G
Stay gentle, keep the eyes of a child
       Em          Bm            Am  D
Don't harden your heart or your hands
 Am           D          G           Em
Know to find joy in the darkness is wise
    Am                                    D
Although they will think you don't understand

 G                            Em
Don't let the world make you callous
    Am       D
Be ready to laugh
G                    Em
No one's forgotten about us
          Am            D
There is light on your path

Chorus:
 G    Am               D          G
Stay gentle, keep the eyes of a child
     Em        Bm            Am   D
And wear your heart on your sleeve
 Am           D          G           Em
Know to find joy in the darkness is wise
    Am                            D
Although they will think you are naive

Don't let 'em lower your shoulders
Love 'em more while they try
Grow younger while you're growin' older
Be amazed by the sky

 Em                   Bm
Ooooh, darling, stay wild if you can (If you can)
     C                          G         D   Em
The girl with the world in her hands (In her hands)
     Em                  Bm
The kingdom of Heaven belongs to a boy
           Am                 D
While his worry belongs to a man

  G   Am       B    Em
Stay gentle, stay gentle
          C         D           Em E
The most powerful thing you can do
