_ _ _ _ _ _ [Ab] My child arrived just the other [Bb] day He came to [F] the world in the usual way
But there were planes to [Ab] catch and bills to [Bb] pay
He learned to [F] walk while I was away [Eb] If he was [Gm] talking floor I [Cm] knew it [Bb] as he grew
[Ab] He'd say [Eb] I'm gonna [F] be like you, [Ab] Dad [Eb] No, I'm gonna [Fm] be like you
_ And the [C] cats in the [Eb] cradle and the silver [Ab] spoon
Little boy blue [Bb] and the man in the moon [Fm] When [Eb] you coming home, Dad, I don't know [Ab] when
But [Gm] we'll get together [F] then [Ab] No, [Eb] we'll have a [F] good time then _

He shook his [F] head and he said with a [Eb] smile What [Bb] I'd really [Cm] like, Dad, is [Bb] to borrow the
[Ab] car [Eb] keys See [F] you later, can I have them please?
