C
I tried to hide a little thought
Am G
The more I tried the worse things got
G C
It started out so meek and small
Am G
But in a wink pervaded all

G C
Just a stray little stray, stray, stray
G D
By tryin' to hide if I'd asked it to stay
G C
By tryin'to hide if I'd made it a bed
G D
from which to rule the world unsaid

D Em
To hide a little thought
D Em
A little vagabond
D Em
A sprite in the dark
D Em
that wouldn't move along

C
Many thoughts they come and go
Am G
This too shall pass, she'll never know
C
But since my way is bold and free
Am G
She noticed somethin' strange in me

C
Maybe my voice speeded up or slowed down
G D
Maybe my eyes started dartin' around
G C
Maybe my hands started coverin' my face
G D
Maybe I rambled all over the place

Em
To hide a little thought
D Em
A little vagabond
D Em
A sprite in the dark
D Em
that wouldn't move along

F#m
I don't say each thing on my mind
Bm A
To say each thing would be unkind
F#m
But with someone I know so well
Bm A
it's so unlike me not to tell

A F#m
Usually I like confrontations, I do
A E
I get this thrill out of sayin' what's true
A F#m
I look so lifeless when I try to lie
A E
That's why it's easy to tell when I try

E F#m
To hide a little thought
E F#m
A little vagabond
E F#m
A sprite in the dark
E F#m
That wouldn't move along
