Beetlejuice - Children We Didnt Have Chords

NOTE: This is the chord progression used in Kerry's StarsInTheHouse performance. The version cut from the show
uses Am7 and G instead of Csus2 and Csus2/B for the first two lines when beginning a verse (like in the last
verse of this version), but all other uses are unchanged.
 
[Intro]
Csus2
 
[Verse 1]
Csus2       Csus2/B          Fsus2
Children we didn’t have don’t call.
      Csus2                    Csus2/B      Fsus2
Their heights aren’t marked in pencil on the wall.
     Dm7                   Em7
They don’t ride bikes, cry out at night,
   Am                E7
Or fall and graze a knee.
          Am        G      Fm6
And their arms will never reach,
        Csus2    Csus2/B      Csus2  G/C F/C G/C
For the mother I never got to be.
 
[Verse 2]
    Csus2       Csus2/B          Fsus2
The children we didn’t have press in,
  Csus2           Csus2/B      Fsus2
Remind me that we couldn’t just begin.
        Dm7                  Em7
They’d laugh on swings, and whisper things
    Am              E7
I’m not suppose to know.
         Am     G      Fm6
And they never stop to see,
        Csus2    Csus2/B         Csus2
The mother that never was, that’s me.
 
[Bridge]
            Fadd2               Cadd2
Think about all the children we didn’t have,
              Dm7           Cadd2
Picture them playing in the light.
              Em
Think of them deep in thought,
                F                 Fm
Think of their face when they’re caught,
       A#       Fsus2 Gsus4 G
Doing something naughty.
 
                  Dm7
Now picture them three or four,
              Em7
Picture them walking out the door.
              G#maj7
Think of them twenty or thirty or forty,
         Csus2
Or maybe fifteen.
                      Fadd2
I think you know who I mean.
 
[Verse 3]
     Am7         G               F
The daughter we didn’t have moved in,
Am7              G             F
Smart and sad, uneasy in her skin.
Dm7              Em7
Far too young to lose a mom,
    Am                   E7
Or take the path she’s travelling on.
            Am     G      Fm6
If I could whisper in her ear,
              Csus2      Fadd2
I’d tell the daughter we didn’t have,
    Cadd2
I’m here.
