When I grow up, I want to be a forester

Run through the moss on high heels

Waiting for it to come back to me

Dm         Bb     F 
When I grow up, I want to live near the sea 
C                        Dm 
Crab claws and bottles of rum 
                           Bb      F 
That?s what i?ll have, staring at the seashell 
C                     Dm      Bb      F   C 
Waiting for it to embrace me, oh ohhh ooh oh

I put my soul in what I do

Last night I drew a funny man 
C                            Dm 
with dark eyes and a hanging tongue

It goes way bad, I never liked a sad look 
C                            Dm            Bb   F     C    
From someone who wants to be loved by you, oooh oooh  oohh 

Dm                      Bb 
I?m very good with plants 
        F 
When my friends are away 
           C                Dm 
they let me keep the soil moist 
                      Bb 
On the seventh day I rest 
      F 
for a minute or two 
     C                  Dm           Bb   F   C     Dm   Bb  F    C

You?ve got cucumbers on your eyes 
        F 
Too much time spent on nothing 
C                       Dm 
waiting for a moment to arise 
                Bb          F 
The face in the ceiling and arms too long 
C                      Dm       Bb   F    C      Dm 
I'm waiting for him to catch me oooh oooh oooh   oooh
