Watching Scotty Grow

C                    F                
There he sits with a pen and a yellow pad
       G
He's a handsom lad
          C
That's my boy

C                F       
B-R-L-F-Q spells Mom and Dad
     G                  
That ain't too bad
          C
That's my boy

F                 G           C           Am
You can have your TV and your nightclubs
F                 G                C      Am
You can have your drive in picture show
F                     G                C                   Am
I'll sit here with my little man near, we'll listen to the radio
F                  G               C
Bidin' my time and watching Scotty grow.

C                      F          
Makin' a castle out of building blocks
      G
And a cardboard box
          C
That's my boy

C                      F              
Mickey Mouse says it's thirteen o'clock
            G
Well that's quite a shock!
          C
That's my boy

   F
In four short years
     G                 C      Am
I've gone from rags to riches
    F          G                   C    Am
And what I did before that I don't know
   F                 G
So let it rain on my windowpane
  C              Am
I got my own rainbow
          F           
And we're sitting here shining
G               C
Watching Scotty grow

          C                 F
Riding on daddy's shoulders off to bed
    G
Old sleepy head
          C
That's my boy

C                                  F
Got to have a drink of water and a story read
        G
A teddy bear named Fred
          C
That's my boy

F
What's that you say momma
G                    C        Am
Come on and keep you feet warm
     F
Well save me a place
     G                       C   Am
I'll be there in a minute or so
     F                     G
I'll think I'll stay right here and
      C                      Am     
Say a little prayer before I go

F
Me and God are
G               C
Watching Scotty grow

F
Me and God are
G               C
