Beautiful Child Lyrics

By: Fleetwood Mac from 1979's "Tusk"
Intro: C Fmaj7 C Fmaj7
Beautiful Child
Beautiful Child
You are a beautiful child
And I am a fool once more
You fell in love when I was only ten
The years disappeared
Much has gone by since then
I bite my lip, can you send me away?
You touch
I have no choice
I have to stay
Ooh,
I had to stay
Ooh,
I had to stay
Sleepless child
There is so little time
Your eyes say yes
But you don't say yes
Well, I wish that you were mine
I wish that you were mine.
You say it will be harder in the morning
I wait for you to say, just go
Your hands, held mine so few hours
j7
But I'm not a child anymore
I'm not a child anymore
I'm tall enough to reach the stars
I'm old enough
To love you from afar
Too trusting. . .yes?
But then women usually are
I'm not a child anymore
I'm tall enough to reach for the stars
I'm old enough to love you from afar.
Even if I never hold you again
Repeat and fade: Fmaj7 Am/G Am Am/G
