When Will My Life Begin

7 AM, the usual morning lineup
B E/F#
Start on the chores and sweep 'til the floor's all clean
C G
Polish and wax, do laundry, and mop and shine up
Bmaj7 E A Bmaj7
Sweep again, and by then it's like 7:15
E A
And so I'll read a book
Bmaj7 E
Or maybe two or three
E A Bmaj7 E
I'll add a few new paintings to my gallery
C#m A
I'll play guitar and knit
Bmaj7 C#m
And cook and basically
A Bmaj7 E
Just wonder when will my life begin?
Then after lunch it's puzzles and darts and baking
Paper mache, a bit of ballet and chess
Pottery and ventriloquy, candle making
Then I'll stretch, maybe sketch, take a climb
Sew a dress!
And I'll reread the books
If I have time to spare
I'll paint the walls some more
I'm sure there's room somewhere
And then I'll brush and brush
and brush and brush my hair
A Bmaj7 A
Stuck in the same place I've always been
A
And I'll keep wonderin' and wonderin'
E
And wonderin' and wonderin'
A Bmaj7 E
When will my life begin?
