_ _ Cynthia Weill.
And they brought a song that they
wanted me to sing on the Donahue Show to Carl Betz. _

_ _ _ _ My _ [C] dad _ _ [Am] _ _ _
_ _ [F] _ _ now [G] feels his [C] hand _ _ [Am] _ _

_ [Em] When I [B] walked _ by [Em] his _ side, _ _
[D] _ [G] and _ everyone [D] _ _

And [Dm] my _ mom would burst [G] into tears. _ _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ _ [Am] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [G] Oh, I [G] _ [C] love them so.
_ _ [Am] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [G] And I [C] only hope that _ [G] someday _ _ my own sons will
