[Intro]

G
Hey Kids

C
How're ya doing?

D
Thanks for listening.

[Verse 1]

G
I've been asked to write a song about

C
what you might be missing

G
When you're staring at your smartphones

D
and into your computer screens

C
And not playing by the river

D G
Skipping stones and climbing trees

C G
And did you know your great grand daddy once howled at the moon

D G
But there won't be any footage of it on YouTube

C G
And once upon a time when someone saw something beautiful

D G
They watched it with their eyes not through the screen of a telephone

C G
A picture might be worth a thousand pixels

D G
But there's still some things you can enjoy without your log in details

[Chorus]

C G
So tell the dandelion it can tell the time

D
Roll your trousers up

G
Head to the river side

C G
Blow the cobwebs off of your careless soul

D G
Watch the sunrise when you're on you're own

C G
There try to tell you to be careful

D
But you've never really lived

G
If you've never been stung by a stinging nettle

[Verse 2]

G
Hey kids,

C
If you're still listening

G D
The ironys not lost on me

G C G
I use my computer and my phone everyday I'm not singing a song about a

D
time machine

G C
Of course technology is excellent

G D
And we're all living in the future
