_ _ _ _ [Bb] _ [Fm] _ _ _
[Cm] _ _ [F] _ _ _ When a child arrived [Ab] just the other day, [Bb] he came to [F] the world in the usual way.
There were trucks to drive [Ab] and bills to pay.
[Bb]
He learned [F] to walk while it was away.
He [Eb] was talking [Gm] before he knew it, and as he grew, he said, I'm gonna be [Fm] like you,
dad.
[Ab] You know [Eb] I'm gonna be [F] like you. _
_ _ _ And the cat's in the cradle [Eb] and the silver spoon,
[Ab] little boy blue [Bb] and the man in the moon.
[F] When you coming home, [Eb] dad, I don't know [Ab] when.
We'll get [Cm] together [F] then.
_ [Ab] We're gonna [Cm] have a good [F] time then. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ Yeah, I know I got the words [Cm] backward.
_ [F] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ Son turned 10 just [Ab] the other day, [Bb] said thanks for [F] the ball, dad.
Come on, let's play.
Can you teach
me to throw?
[Ab] Said not today, [Bb] got a lot to [Eb] do.
Said [F] that's okay.
[Eb] As he [Gm] walked away, but a [Bb] smile
never dimmed.
[Eb] Said I'm gonna be [F] like him.
Yeah, [Ab] you know I'm [Eb] gonna be [F] like him. _ _ _
And the cat's in
the cradle [Eb] and the silver spoon, _ [Ab] little boy blue and [Bb] the man in the moon.
[F] When you coming home,
[Eb] dad, I don't know when.
[Ab] We'll get [Cm] together [F] then. _ _
[Ab] We're gonna have [Cm] a good [F] time then.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ You came from [Ab] college just the other day, so [Bb]
much like a [F] man.
I just had to say, son, I'm proud of
you.
[Ab] Can you sit for a while?
[Bb] He shook his head [F] and he said with a smile, [Eb] what I'd really [Bb] like,
dad, [Eb] is to borrow the car [Ab] keys.
[Gm] See you later, [F] can I have them please? _ _
_ And the cat's in the
cradle [Eb] and the silver spoon, [Ab] little boy blue and [Bb] the man in the moon.
_ [F] When you coming [Eb] home, dad,
I don't know when.
[Ab] We'll get [Eb] together [F] then.
_ [Ab] We're gonna have [G] a [F] good time then.
[Db] _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ [Cm] _
_ [F] _ _ _ _ _ _ _

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ A long since [Ab] retired and son moved [Bb] away.
I called him [F] up just the other day.
_ _ _ Said I'd like to see [Ab] you if you don't mind.
He [Bb] said I'd love [Eb] to, dad, if [F] I could find the time. _ _
See [Eb] the new [Gm] jobs, the hassle, [Cm] and the [Eb] kids have the flu, but [Ab] it's [Eb] sure nice talking [F] to you, dad.
[Ab] It's been [Eb] sure nice talking [F] to you. _
_ _ _ [Eb] As I hung up [Bb] the phone, it [Cm] occurred [Bbm] to me, [Ab] he'd [Cm] grown up just [F] like me.
_ [Ab] My boy [Cm] was just [F] like _ me. _ _ _
And the cat's in the cradle [Eb] and the silver spoon, [Ab] little boy blue [Bb] and the man
