[Eb] _ _ [Bbm] _ [Ab] _ [Eb] _ [Db] _ [Eb] _
My child [Gb] arrived just the other [Ab] day
Came to the [Eb] world in an easier way
Had airplanes to [Gb] catch, meals to pay
[Ab] He learned to walk while [Eb] I was away
He [Db] was talking for a minute [Bbm] and as he [Ab] flew
He said, I'm [Db] gonna be [Eb] like you, Dad
[Gb] You know I'm [Db] gonna be [Eb] like you
And the cats and the critter [Db] and the silver spoon
[Gb] Little Bobby and [Ab] the man on the moon
[Eb] When you're coming home, [Db] son, I don't know when
We'll get together [Eb] then
[Gb] You know, [Db] love will do [Eb] a time _ then _ _ _
_ _ _ Well, my son turned [Gb] to me just the other [Ab] day
Said, thanks for [Eb] the ball, Dad, come on, let's play
Filled it just with your throw
I [Gb] said, not today, I [Ab] got a lot to do
He [Eb] said, like some day, [Db] honey
He walked away [Bbm] and [Db] smiled
He said, you [Gb] know, I'm [Db] gonna be [Eb] like him, yeah
[Gb] You know [Db] I'm gonna be [Eb] like _ him
And the cats and the [Db] critter and the silver [Gb] spoon
Little Bobby [Ab] and the man on the [Eb] moon
When you're coming [Db] home, son, I don't know when
We'll get [Eb] together then
[Gb] You [Db] know, love will [Eb] do a time _ _ _ then _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Well, he flew from college [Gb] just the other day
[Ab] So much like a man, [Eb] I just happened to see
I'm proud of you, [Gb] could you sit for a while
[Ab] He shook his head [Eb] and he said with a [Db] smile
What I'm feeling like, Dad, is to buy the car keys
See [Eb] you later, can I have them please?
And the cats and the [Db] critter and the silver spoon
[Gb] Little Bobby [Ab] and the man on the [Eb] moon
When you're [Db] coming home, son, I don't know when
We'll get together [Eb] then
[Gb] You know, [Db] love will do a [Eb] time [B] _ then
[Db] _ [Eb] _ _ _
_ [Ebm] _ [B] _ _ [Db] _ [Eb] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ Well, since you're [Gb] tired, you're so tired
[Ab] I called him up [Eb] just the other day
To see [Gb] you, if you don't mind
[Ab] He said, I'd [Eb] love to, Dad, if I could find the time
[Db] You see, my new job's a [Bbm] hassle and the [Db] kids live to [Gb] boot
But [Db] it's sure nice talking to [Eb] you, [Gb] Dad
Sure [Db] nice talking [Eb] to you
And [Db] as I hung up the phone, [Bbm] it occurred [Db] to me
You'd grown up just [Ebm] like [Eb] me
[Gb] My [Db] boy was [Eb] just like me
And the cats and the [Db] critter and the silver [Gb] spoon
Little Bobby [Ab] and the man on the moon
[Eb]
When you're coming [Db] home, son, I don't know [Gb] when
[Db] We'll get [Eb] together then
[Ab] You [Db] know, love will [Eb] do a time then
And the cats and the [Db] critter and the silver [Gb] spoon
Little Bobby [Ab] and the man on the [Eb] moon
When you're coming [Db] home, son, I don't know when
We'll get [Eb] together then
[Gb] You know, [Fm] love will do a [Eb] time then
