Start Jamming...
[C] [Cm] [F]
[Cm] I know a young warrior named Bobby Smith.
He's gonna be four years old on his [F] next birthday.
[Cm] He happened to be with Brian and me when we wrote this song.
[Fm] [C] It's about new life and [Cm] new spirit, [Ab] new feelings.
We asked [Gm] Bobby, Bobby, what should we call this [Ab] song?
He said, oh, that's pretty.
That's my song.
[C] And [F] it was very appropriate for the song for new life.
It should [Cm] be about Bobby.
Anyway, this is a song for Bobby Smith.
