G                       Bm
Life is unfair, so they tell me,
C                        G
Because they think I wouldn't know.
C                    G
They only can see a cheap gimmick
       A                  D
On their children's favorite show.


         Bm                        Em
They say, "Oh, that's just foam and a wire,
Bm                     Em
Attached to a green velvet sleeve,
C                       G
Anyone can do that" -- well, that's true, I suppose,
    A                       G - D
But who else could make them believe? 


G                   Bm
What can I say without you there to guide me?
C                    G
How else am I supposed to give?
C                   Bm
How can I sing without you there beside me?
A                       D
How else am I supposed to live?


Bm                        Em
You could never just do the expected,
C                   G (Full)
I was just an idea in a bog,
      C              D         Em            A
But you sewed up your dream and we made quite a team ,
           A        D            G  C  G
Jim and Kermit, a boy and his frog. 


       Bm                        Em
It was me, Rolph, and you, but I think that he knew
        C                     G
There was something that you and I had.
    C                   G - Em
The magic we made just kept growing,
    A                  G - D
And none of it ever was bad.


        Bm                  Em
Then came Ernie and Scooter and Gonzo,
       Bm                    E
Doctor Teeth, Cookie Monster, and more.
        C                  Bm
But now all of those voices are silent,
      A                   D
And I want to go on... but what for? 


G                  Bm
No one can make me what you did,
C                    G
No one could walk in your shoes,
C                G (Full)
Nothing can make me forget you,
    A                         G - D      
But that's not a path that I'd choose.


Bm                   Em
I can't just let it be over,
Bm                        Em
And you wouldn't want it that way,
      C              G (full)
So I'll stand up and I'll face it,
          A                          D
And, though not quite in your voice, I'll say: 


G                 Bm
I will go on without you there to guide me,
C                     G
There's so much more I can give.
    C             Bm
Whenever I sing, you will be there beside me,
   A                         D
As long as I keep you, you'll live.


      Bm                  Em
We just wanted to make people happy,
      C                         G
I was always much more than your toy.
       C      D      Em            A
I will never regret and I'll never forget
      G
What we had,
             G - D
I'll miss you, Dad,
               C - Bm - C - G - D - G (Full)
This frog and his boy.
