[Intro]
B E A E
[Verse 1]
E D A E
My name is Jenny and I am four fingers old
A E D A B
Mostly I just try to do the things that I am told

A E D A B
I may be just four fingers old but I know what I like
[Chorus]

Someone keeps calling my name, my name
[Verse 2]

My name is Jason and I'm ten birthdays old
A E D A B
My parents had me years ago to have and to hold

It's strange how two can share a life divided by a wall

My name is Jonathon, I'm fifty seasons old
E E D A B
I say it that way 'cause I love the changes each year holds

But as I look around I see some changes nature never planned

I guess it's time to change ourselves, at least while we still can
[Chorus]

My name is Jaime, fifteen years I've been to young

The world has come a-calling and it's bleeding at my door

Am I supposed to turn away, or is this what I'm here for?
