Em Am G D/F# In the afternoons he goes down, down, down Dm7 F G C Em A To the lonely room near the lost and found de-partment. Dm7 Dm7/G C C/B Am There's a little boy in every man's heart Cdim7 D#dim7 G Am7 G/B Crying out, trying out. C C/B Am As he rushes in to hear the band start, Cdim7 D#dim7 G F So alone, in the crowd, in the crowd. C B(with lick 1) Em Am G D/F# Just a little girl on her daddy's knee, Dm7 F G C B(with lick 1) Just remember when she was one, two, three. Em Am G D/F# In a little while she'll want to be free, Dm7 F G C Em A And your little girl will be seventeen to-morrow. Dm7 Dm7/G C C/B Am There's a little girl in every daddy's heart, Cdim7 D#dim7 G Am7 G/B Dreaming eyes, scheming eyes. C C/B Am When she sings for you remember your part, Cdim7 D#dim7 G F Listen up, when she cries, when she sighs. C B(with lick 1) Em Am G D/F# Dm7 F G C B(with lick 1) Em Am G D/F# Dm7 F G C Em A Dm7 Dm7/G C C/B Am There's a little child in everyone's heart, Cdim7 D#dim7 G Am7 G/B Needing love, needing love. C C/B Am There's a little child in everyone's heart, Cdim7 D#dim7 G Am7 G/B Needing love, needing love. (REPEAT & FADE) [lick 1] after playing the B chord, play 2 single notes, F#, F, on E string to transition to the Em chord. Just the E string is tabbed here: E:--2-1--| ========================== [CHORDS] D/F# 3xx232 Dm7/G 3xx211 C/B x22010 Cdim7 xx1212 D#dim7 xx4545 G/B x20003 A quick music factoid - going from Cdim7 to D#dim7, as tabbed here, the chords are actually interchangeable. In other words, Cdim7 is also D#dim7, and vice versa. And both are also F#dim7, and Adim7. By notating the song as 2 different chords, going from Cdim7 to D#dim7, is just a way to show a change. I could have just as well as left it only as Cdim7 or D#dim7.
