      Teddy Thompson - Missing Children


CAPO: 2nd Fret




[Intro]
G

[Verse 1]

Wake up and check the mail, hoping to find a letter from you
    C                      G
But all I find are missing children

Turn on the morning news, hoping to see a resemblance of you
    C                     G
But all I see are missing children


[Chorus]
D               Eb             D       G
Tell me, do you miss me like a missing child


[Verse 2]

Trying to start my day, pouring the coffee, reach for the milk
        C                                 G
And the carton says, "Have you seen these children?"

So I go to church and pray, down on my knees, when the plate comes with
             C                            G
"Please give what you can for the missing children"


[Chorus]
D               Eb             D       G        Am
Tell me, do you miss me like a missing child


[Bridge]
              D       C           D             Am
And I do feel bad for faces in my face all day
              D             C             Cm              G
But the circumstance means, I can't think of anything but you
    C            Cm             D      G  
No, I can't care for anyone but you


[Verse 3]

So I try to get away, whole different place, but the signs are the same
               C                  G
There's always more, more missing children

And when I closed my eyes, I used to dream sweet dreams of you
    C                         G
Now all my dreams are missing children


[Chorus]
      D           Eb              D       G
And I miss you, I miss you like a missing child
        D           Eb              D       G       Eb
Yeah, I miss you, I miss you like a missing child
  D       G       Eb
A missing child
  D       G    Eb D G
A missing child_______
