Tiny [Fm] child, you were a miracle [Eb] to [Ab] me
A miracle [Gm] and you will [Fm] always [Eb] be
[Ab] And now [Gm] that [Ab] I have [Eb] such a
[Ab] heart
I'm [Gm] so tired [Fm] and my miracle [Eb] is not
What [Fm] is life?
Did you read [Cm] about it in a magazine?
[Gm]
[Fm] Silent nights, never give you what you need
[Fm] So hold for a mother [G] and an elf on the street
[Em] Kiss the sun, [Am] hello
Child, I'm [Em] a poem, made your [Am] life a lovely way
[D] I'm so [D] tired, you're so [C] wild
And I'm a poet [Gm] without a poem
[F] And you are my child, [Eb]
[Fm] so serene
[Gm] I read about it in a [Ab] magazine
[Fm] While we were [Cm] driving by the washing machine
Let's [Fm] float away to [Gm] follow [G] a dream
[Em] Kiss the [Am] sun, hello
Child, [B] I'm a [Em] poem, made your [Am] life a lovely [D] way
And all is laid, and all is long
Dreams have eyes, [Gm] and you are my soul
[F] My lovely soul
[Eb]
[D] [C] What is [Ab] love?
Child, I'm [Cm] here to stand by you and you [Ab] will find
Your only [Cm] heart and true [Fm] love will find mine
As I'm growing [G] with you
[Em] Kiss the sun, [Am] hello
[Em] God and God is king, is [Am] life a loving thing?
[D] And if I smile [D] as you meet your pa, [C] we'll climb [D] in bars
[Gm] To see the stars
[F] You are my [Eb] love, child, my [Eb] love
