Skittles Song  

April 2010

 Capo 3

 

1^st VERSE

Born to the world to those that will love you.

no matter the songs that you sing.

With all that’s before ya, and all who adore ya.

There’s nothing that you can’t achieve.

 

       CHOURS

     So don’t carry the world on your shoulders

     Let the good stuff keep come’n, let the bad slip away.

     And as you grow older and older,

     Make your plans for tomorrow and live for today.

 

2^nd VERSE

The years make you older and your songs will get bolder,

you’ll want to strike out on your own.

Mom just won’t listen and Dad’s in the kitchen,

your world’s spinn’n out of control.

 

1^st BRIDGE

But I know that you know that they know ‘cause they been there before

They love you and worry the mistakes they made might become yours

Don’t shut the door

             

3^rd VERSE

Time will go slowly, and you might be lonely,

until one day when love strikes you blind.

Soon you’ll get married, and things will get scary,

when you start have’in kids of your own.

 

2^nd BRIDGE

And I know that you know that they’ll know that they are adored.

You’ll remember this story and know it’s all happened before.

Don’t shut the door.

 

4^th VERSE

They’ll be born to a world and to those that will love them,

no matter the songs that they sing.

With all that’s before ‘em, and all who adore ‘em,

There’s nothing that they can’t achieve

 

     CHOURS

    So tell ‘em don’t carry the world on your shoulders

    Let the good stuff keep come’n, let the bad slip away

    And as you grow older and older

    Put your faith in tomorrow and live for today
