THIS IS A GREAT SONG FOR ALL PARENTS.

CAPO 2ND FRET  
G                           Em
Three a.m. on the clock, lullaby music box
    C                               Am
Oh, baby please don't cry, let's let mama sleep tonight,
            G                           Em
You've only been home one day, you don't even know your name,
      C                        Am
tiny hand on my cheek, you're a miracle to me,
         Em                          D
In the stillness of the night, cradled in this rocking chair,
        Em                            D
I hold all my hopes and dreams, every single answered prayer.
     
CHOURS:
      G                               G7
In my arms, wish I could hold you forever,
      C    Cadd9           Am
In my arms, I will give you shelter,
        G                       G7
Still I know, I can't always be there,
       C                 Cadd9         Am
To protect you from this great big old world,
       C
But I swear this much is true,
                D                        G
There'll always be a place for you, in my arms.
 
VERSE 2:
G                                         Em
As I watch you take each breath, oh it scares me to death,
               C                         Am
To know you're counting on me, to be the daddy that you need,
        G                            Em       
Wounded knees and broken hearts, learning how to drive a car,
           C                               Am
when it's time for your first date, will I know just what to say,
            Em                             D
And when you find that one true love, I'll put on my best smile,
         Em                         D
and I'll try to hide my tears, as I walk you down the aisle

CHOURS 2x:

        C
Oh, this promise I will keep
       Am              D             G
as you finally fall asleep...in my arms
