[F] [Bb]
[F] [Bb]
Look at you kid, you're growing up quick and I can't seem to tell you to slow
me to death [F] when you tell me you're [Bb] ready to go
I know you're [G] quick as a whip with [Bb] your hands on your hips only eyes
mom's and so proudly I'll watch make the world better off
You go may the road rise up to meet you
wind blow
[F] [Bb]
Look at you kid, you're growing up quick and I can't seem to tell you to slow
me to death [F] when you tell me you're [Bb] ready to go
I know you're [G] quick as a whip with [Bb] your hands on your hips only eyes
mom's and so proudly I'll watch make the world better off
You go may the road rise up to meet you
wind blow

_ _ _ Look at you kid, you're growing up quick and I can't seem to tell you to slow
But they'll soon come a day and it scares me to death [F] when you tell me you're [Bb] ready to go
_ I know you're [G] quick as a whip with [Bb] your hands on your hips only eyes
That could rival your mom's and so proudly I'll watch make the world better off
So my [F] prayer is [Bb] wherever
You go _ _ _ _ may the road rise up to meet you
[F] May the wind blow
_ May _ [Bb] the sun shine on your face while [F] the rain falls on your feels
_ [Bb] May the world lie down before you may you be [F] all you [Dm] can be _
_ But may all [F] those [Bbm] roads you roam [F] wind home
And _ [Bb] _
_ [F] _ _ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _
_ [F] _ _ [Bb] I'll bitch your gifts cuz my [F] folks did the same and I'll pour your first glass of Bordeaux
Oh watch me ruin your palette [Bb] for anything [F] else.
So in your youth you can't afford to get [Bb] drunk
I know [F] there's lips to be kissed and [Bb] there's ones to be missed and you won't keep my two cents for long
So [F] you'll make your mistakes [Bb] like your mind that
[F] Until one day you stumble
[Bb] _
_ So may the Lord be kind they keep you and may [Dm] the devil fear your reach
_ [Bb] May your pockets filled with gold and yet [F] your heart be void [C] of grief
May [Bb] the darkness bow before you
May you [C] find the [Dm] light you see
_ _ But may [C] all those [Bb] roads you roam [F] wind [Bb] home

up kid.
[Bb] I love you to [F] bits and I wish life would learn to be slow
But there will come a day in God.
[C] I [Bb] hope I'm well-aged [F] when I tell you it's my turn
[Bb] And _ _ [G]
that's cruel [F] I'll admit [Bb] but mourn for me quick [F] and look after those kids of your [Bb] own
_ I'll [F] just make different mistakes [Bb] in your mind dad
And make [F] our ceiling look [Bb] like
So _ _ _ may the road rise up to meet you and may [Dm] your laughter
fill the streets
[Bb] May your children be as kind to you [F] as you have been [C] to me
And [Bb] when you've had this world for all its worth and your [C] grandkids
_ [F] _
_ May _ _ _ _ _

those [Bb] roads you roam [F] wind home
