Intro:
Am F Dm G
Am F
Empty rooms, childhood's end
Dm G
Forgotten toys upon the bed
F C
Dreams and memories are all around me now
G F
And I can see you everywhere I look
Am F
But moving on is what you must do
Dm G
Find your way, be happy to
F C
Your world is waiting now and you need never know
G C
Of all these places that I go
F E
To hear the laughter and dry the tears
Am Em F
Remembering all the years
C
When you were growing up
G C
And every photograph can take me there
F E
We brought you up to be proud and strong
Am Em F
And ready for anything
C G
Oh little child of mine
C F G
What life can bring
Am F
Empty rooms when I left home
Dm G
I could not wait to be moving on
F C
I never thought so much about those left behind
G C
But now I know how it has to be
F E
To hear the laughter and dry the tears
Am Em F
Remembering all the years
C
When you were growing up
G C
And every photograph still takes me there
F E
We brought you up to be proud and strong
Am Em F
In everything that you do
C G Am F
Oh little child of mine I miss you
C G C Fm
Oh little child of mine I love you
C
I love you
