C                             F
They say if you leave a horse alone it dies
G                                  F
Nestles into the hay and shuts its eyes
          C                                    F
Well I’ve dreamt of being that horse a hundred times
      G                                     F
And I end up a pile of bones and a cloud of flies
    C                                    F
And when you’re nine years old you don’t care
G                                 F
If you're on your own or one of a pair
    C                                            F
And when you get salt in your eyes, sand in your hair
G                                F
Call for mom or daddy they’ll be there

Chorus -
C            Em             F
Please don’t turn me into a man
C                   Em          F
Cos I don’t want to see my skin fold
C         Em                    F
Oh please wont you keep me as I am
   C              Em                  F
Oh people look so lonely when they’re old, when they’re old

C                                 F
When you come of age it’s not the same
   G                              F
No umbrella over your head when it rains
         C                                         F
And your friends would rather get high than play a game
G                                 F
Oh it’s such a shame the way they change
    C                             F
And Emily’s hung over, bill feels rough
G                                     F
Thinks his girlfriend might be up the duff...again
    C                                F
She threw up twice last night on the bus
      G                                     F
And I never thought growing old could be so tough

Chorus -
C            Em             F
Please don’t turn me into a man
C                   Em          F
Cos I don’t want to see my skin fold
C         Em                    F
Oh please wont you keep me as I am
   C              Em                  F
Oh people look so lonely when they’re old, when they’re old
