Introduction:
G Em Am
I woke up this morning with tears in my eyes,
Am
I never got to say goodbye,
Bm7 D7
I never got to tell you I,
G Em Am
I've really been trying to work it out but all
Am
This work is always dragging me down,
Bm7 D7
Feels like I'm always running around.
G Em Am
I just want to see you growing tall,
Am
Wanna be there to pick you up when you fall,
Bm7 D7
And come running whenever you call.
G Em Am
Cause all of these moments they carry me through,
Am
They make me feel warm and fuzzy inside,
Bm7 D7
And I can't help but swell up with pride.

That you conquered

To cut me back down to size,

But in this life all

I know is you ain't got nothing

If you ain't got something called love.

If you don't grab it it passes you by,

Am
And see you do all of the things that you do,
Bm7 D7
And teach you how to tie up your shoes
(Riff 2)
C
Cause the little things mean everything
G
The smiles you give me give me wings to rise
D9/F# G
Above all this pain and love is all that remains when I hold you.

And these moments we share make it hard

To bear the moments we are apart,
A7 D
They pull at the strings of my heart and the teardrops start to
C9 G C9 G
Faaaall, ooohh, laralaraa oooooh

All that I am belongs to you.
