[Verse]
F G Em F
he'd waited at the gate all day for us
G Em F
though he was old and never left the house
G Em F
standing tall with the wind in his fur
G Em F
like he was young again, a teenager
[Verse]
G Em
and from our first surprise, soon we went quiet
F G Em F
'cause we saw his face… and we saw his eyes
G Em
and we ran to him like the silver screen
F G Em F
and before he fell, he leapt again, into our greeting
[Verse]
G Em F
and looking up, with tiny breaths, he was old again
G Em F
and then we saw what he waited for
G Em F
and our faces crumbled
[Verse]
G Em F
given me in a box when I was three
G Em F
and we all bent down, kissed his kind old head and talked a bit
G Em F
and he fell quiet not long after that
[Bridge]
G Em F
no I'll never never go, no I'll never never go
G Em F
no I'll never never go, no I'll never let you go
