[D] [F#m] [Em] [D] [G] [D]
[F#m] [Em] [D] If it weren't for [G] kids, have you [D] ever thought there wouldn't be [A] no Santa [G] Claus?
Or look what the [A] store just [Em] brought, thank [D] God for kids.
[F#m] [Em] [D] We'd all [G] live in a quiet [D] house without Big Bird [A] or a Mickey Mouse.
[G] And who laid [A] on the couch, [A] thank God [D] for kids.
[G] Thank God for kids, [A] there's magic [D] for a while.
[G] A special [A] kind of sunshine [D] and a smile.
[G] Did you ever stop to [A] think [Bm] or wonder [A] why?
[G] [D] The dearest thing [Em] to [D] heaven [C] is a child.
[A] [D] Daddy, how [G] does this thing fly?
[D] And [A] a hundred other wheres and whys.
[G] I really don't know, [A] but I try.
[D] Thank God [G] for kids.
[F#m] [Em] [D] And when I look down [G] at those trusting [D] eyes that look to [A] me,
then I [G] realize there's love that I [A] can't buy.
[A] Thank [D] God for kids.
[G] Thank God for kids, [A] there's magic [D] for a while.
[G] A special [A] kind of sunshine [D] and a smile.
[G] Did you ever stop [A] to think [Bm] or wonder [A] why?
[G] The [D] dearest [Em] thing to [D] heaven [C] is a child.
[A] [E] [B] [E] When you get down on [A] your knees tonight,
[E] thank the Lord [G#m] for his guiding [B] light,
[A] and pray they'll turn [B] out right.

Thank God for [E] grandkids, too.
