_ [Eb] Little boy, [Ab] when you speak I can't help but kiss your cheeks
[Db] I love the way [Fm] you grab my hands [Bbm] And tell me all [F] about your plans
[Ab] Rocket high, _ comets fly You and I could hitch a ride
[Db] And fly away [Fm] to _ Neverland [Bbm] And give our [F] best to Peter Pan
_ _ When [Eb] you reach for the [Ab] stars Don't [F] forget who you are
And please don't [C] turn around And grow up way too [Db] _ fast
_ _ _ See the set _ grasp From [F] the first to the last
Every [C] grain becomes a memory of [Db] the past Oh, life's an _ hourglass _
_ [Eb] _ Life's [Ab] an _ hourglass
_ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ The story's read, prayer is said Close your eyes, sleepy head
[Db] While angels [Eb] linger in your dreams [Bbm] And hold you in their [F] feathered wings
Just [Ab] like you, I was small Not that long ago
I _ _ [Db] wish you all [Bb] the happiness That [Bbm] God gives freely if [Bb] you ask _ _
When [Db] you reach for the stars Don't [Bbm] forget who you are
[F] And please don't [C] turn around And grow up way too [Db] fast
_ _ _ _ [Bb]
See [Db] the set _ _ grasp [Bb] From the first to the last
[Fm] Every grain becomes a memory of [Db] the past Oh, [Cm] life's an _ [Db] hourglass
_ _ [Cm] _ Life's an _ [Db] hourglass _ _ [Eb] _ Life's an [Ab] hourglass _ _ _ _ _
