VERSE: 
      D5                         G5 
If it weren't for kids have you ever thought 
D5                 A5    
There wouldn't be no Santa Claus 
    G5                        A5  
And look what the stork just brought 
              D5    A5     
Thank God for kids        
 
VERSE: 
    D5                  G5 
And we'd all live in a quiet house 
    D5            A5 
Without Big Bird or Mickey Mouse 
    G5               A5             
And Kool Aid on the couch 
             D5     A5  
Thank God for kids  
       G5                     A5          D5   
Thank God for kids, there's magic for a while 
  G5               A5            D5   
A special kind of sunshine in a smile 
       G5            A5              B5  
Do you ever stop to think or wonder why 
    G5       D5     E5          C5  A5 
The nearest thing to heaven is a child  
 
VERSE: 
D5               G5  
Daddy, how does this thing fly? 
  D5          A5   
a hundred other wheres and whys 
    G5                         A5 
You really don't know but you try 
             D5     A5  
Thank God for kids  
 
VERSE: 
         D5                  G5      
When you look down in those trusting eyes 
     D5         A5  
That look to you, you realize 
          G5                   A5   
There's a love that you can't buy 
             D5     A5  
Thank God for kids  

REPEAT Chorus: 

VERSE: 
       D5                G5 
When you get down on your knees tonight 
   D5                      A5   
To thank the Lord for His guiding light 
    G5                  A5  
And pray they turn out rignt 
             D5       
Thank God for kids
