Start Jamming...
[F#] [C#] [F#] [C#] When [F#] you [C#] have a child, [F#] you learn it's a [C#] serious business to [F#] have a [D#m] little fun
[F#] You [D#m]
[C#] give grace and give [G#] forgiveness, [C#] not seven times [G#] seventy, but seven times [F#] seventy-one
[C#] [F#] [C#] And when [D#] you [C#] have a child, those four walls you call a house [F#] take on a life of [D#] its own
[F#] When you bring them home, you [G#] will cry [C#] and you [G#] will laugh
[C#] When they hurt it cuts you [G#] in half, it's your [F#] flesh and bone
[C#] [G#]
And year [F#] after year, [G#] pictures fill page [F#] after page
[C#] They never really grow up, still your baby at any age
[D#m] The first time you hold him, [C#] it's like you see God smile
What [F#] a smile [C] [F#] [C#] [G#] when [F#] you [C#] have a child
[F#] [C#] And then boy meets girl, and [F#] perfume and [C#] gasoline rain on your [D#m] perfect world
[F#]
[C#] Curfews are often [G#] broken, thank [C#] yous aren't spoken
[G#] He's [D#m] got the keys to that old Dodge, [C#] and she's wearing a Corsage, [F#] and her mama's pearls
And [C#] [G#]
[F#] year after year, [G#] pictures fill page [F#] after page
[Fm] They never [C#] really grow up, still your baby at any age
[D#m] And the first time you hold him, [C#] it's like you feel God smile
What a [F#] smile [D#] [C#] [G#] when [C#] you have a child
[F#] [C#] You [A#m] pray that phone call [B] will never come
And [D#m] if God forbid, [C#] how would you live?
[F#] How could you [G#] go on [F] and on and [A#m] on and on?
[D#m]
[G#] And year [A#m] after year, [G#] close the chapter and turn [A#m] the page
[C#] Blue ribbons and losing seasons, flipping tassels on the stage
[D#m] Oh, but you don't need a photograph
[C#] You've got at least a million pictures of [F#] that smile
Oh, when [C#] you close [G#] your eyes
When [F#] you [C#] love a [F#] child
Oh, [C#] when you love a child
[G#] [C#]
