C#m                  F#m             B                  G#m
You would think that I could find a simple song, a photograph of mine
     A        Am         E                G#
To show this public eye, what I have to offer
I may not have a PHD, or speak in eloquent philosophy!
I'm nothing more than simply me you see!

A           Am       E C#
What I am trying to say
     F#m           Am       B
I'm just a babe in so many ways!

Chorus:
            E
I'm still growing, still stretchin'
        A                Am
Still breaking in these new shoes
  E                                    A  Am
Looking for a way to make a mark of my own
              E
I'm just a spring chick, wet behind the ears
        A                Am
It's a part of life so there's no need to fear
       C#m     F#               B       E
These growing pains that I'm going through

I don't regret, I'm not ashamed
That I haven't yet begun to speaketh ways
(As the wisest of men)
Oh perhaps some day but for now I'm grateful
To be a part of the family tree
While The Man upstairs does His work on me
It's a job that may take eternity to complete
Just when I've learned all I can
Those growing pains up and kick on in again

Chorus:
Still growing, still stretching
Still breaking in these new shoes
Looking for a way to make a mark of my own
I'm just a spring chick, wet behind the ears
It's a part of life, so there's no need to fear
These growing pains that I'm going through

Time after time, one more time and again
Will it ever end?
It's the lessons in our lives that make us wise
But young or old, I am told it's the same

Oh, these growing pains never go away
So I'll just keep on trying

What I am trying to say
I'm just a babe in so many ways!

Chorus:
Still growing, still stretching
Still breaking in these new shoes
Looking for a way to make a mark of my own
I'm just a spring chick, wet behind the ears
It's a part of life, so there's no need to fear
These growing pains that I'm going through
Oh, baby don't worry about a thing

Thank you
Thank you very much
Thank you
Thank you
