_ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _
Daddy, what if [C#m] the sun stopped [A] shining?
[F#] _
What would happen [B] then?
[C#] _ _ [D#] _
[E] If the sun stopped shining, [B] you'd be so surprised.
[E] _ You'd stare at the heavens [B] with wide open eyes.
[E] The wind would carry [B] your light [G#m] to the skies,
[C#m] and the sun [F#] would start [B] shining [G#m] again. _
[C#m] _ _ [F#] _ [B] But Daddy, what if [C#m] the wind stopped blowing?
[F#] _ What would [B] happen?
_ _ _ [E] Well, if the wind stopped blowing, [B] you'd probably cry.
[E] Because your boat wouldn't sail, [B] and the sun of your kite couldn't fall.
[E] And the grass would see your trouble, [B] and [G#m] she'd tell the wind,
and the wind [C#m] would [F#] start [B] blowing [G#m] again.
_ _ [C#m] _ [F#] _
[B] But Daddy, what if [C#m] the grass stopped growing?
[D#] _ [F#] What would happen?
[B] _ _ _
[E] Well, if the grass stopped growing, [B] then the land would be dry,
[E] and the ground would be [B] watered by the tears from your eyes.
[E] And like you love for me, [B] the grass would [G#m] grow so high,
[C#m] the grass [F#] would start [B] growing [G#m] again. _
[C#m] _ _ [F#] _ [B] But Daddy, what if I [C#m] stopped loving you?
What would happen then?
[F#] _ Well, I'll tell you what.
[B] _ _ _ [E] If you stopped loving me, and the [B] grass would stop growing,
[F#m] [E] the sun would stop shining, [B] and the wind would stop blowing.
[E] So you see, son, if you want to keep this [B] old world a-going,
