Chords for Elvis Presley - My Boy(Lyrics)

[D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ Your sleeping [A] son I know, but really [Bm] this can't wait, I wanted to [F#m] explain before [Bm] it
gets too late.
_ _ _ For your mother [G] and me, _ love has [F#m] finally died, this is no [Em] happy home, but God knows [F#] how I feel.
I'm not going to cry, _ _ _ because [Bm] you're all I have, [G] my [Em] boy, you are [A] my life, my pride, [F#m] my
joy, _ and if [G#] I stay, _ I stay [C#] because of you, [B] my boy.
_ _ [F#] _ _
[B] _ [F#] _ [D] _ _ _ _ _
It's hard to [A] understand, why did we [Bm] ever start, we're more [F#m] like strangers now, each [Bm] acting out apart.
_ _ _ _ I have [G] laughed, I have cried, I've lost [F#m] ever again, take it all [Em] I can take, but I'll stay
here [Bm] just the [F#] same, _ _ [B] because [Bm] you're all I have, [Em] my boy, you are [A] my life, my pride, [D] my joy,
and if I [G#] stay, I stay [C#] because of you, [Bm] my boy.
_ [F#] _ _ _
[G#m] _ [F#] _ [D] _ _ _ Sing on, you [A] haven't heard a word, perhaps [Bm] it's just as well, why spoil [F#m] your little dreams,
why put [Bm] you through the hell.
_ _ _ _ _ Life is no [G] fairy tale, and one [F#m] day you will know, but now [Em] you're just a child, I'll stay
[F#] here and watch you grow. _ _ _ _
_ _ [Bm] Because you're [Em] all I have, my boy, you are [A] my life, my pride, [D] my joy, _ [Bm] and if I stay,
I stay [C#] because of you, [B] my boy.
_ [F#] _ _ _
_ [Bm] _ _ _ _ [Em] _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ And [D] _ _
if [G#] I stay, I stay [C#] because of you, [B] my _ boy.
