Verse
D#
Little child, I have found
Gm
If I stood up and looked around
G# D#
I'd see a brand new face staring right back at me
D#
I believe, I am sure
Gm
That I'm taller than I was before
G# D#
Building a brand new bridge into sincerity
[Chorus]
G# A#
But it's at times like this we must learn to grow
D# G#
Throw a penny for my children, they are going down
A# D#
When the light shines down much brighter, many souls are found
D# G#
And I can't believe what they're saying in the overground
A# Cb [break]
Throw a penny for my children going down

At night I turn my face into the wind

What means the most to me and bring him close

Building a brand new bridge, I know I'm gonna try
