F                 Bb     F
Oh, my son, don't you go far
F                   C
I need you not to go
        F                       Bb                F
You are long for this world, so stay close to the earth
 C                          F
     Just like I told you so
F                           Bb      F
Sometimes I feel like we're falling fast
F                    C
But we never hit the ground
   F          Dm
And as we are falling
Bb        F
I turn to you

[Chorus 1]

C                   Bb             F
Say now we know the world ain't round
    C               Bb              F
Oh, now we know the world ain't round

[Verse 2]

F                  Bb      F
Oh, sweet baby you blow my mind
F                        C
With everything that you do
      F         Dm
We'll sit right here
    Bb              F
For every breath he makes
        Bb              F
For the sunlight on his face
       C             Bb       F
And we do it 'til we break in two

[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]

F                  Bb      F
Oh, sweet baby you blow my mind
F                        C
With everything that you do
    F        Dm
You said be strong
Bb                        F
For this road that we are on
         Bb                  F
Could be dangerous, could be long
C             Dm
You pour into me
    Bb             F
And I'll pour into you
          C             Bb       F
And we'll do it 'til we break in two

[Verse 4]
F                 Bb      F
Oh, my son, I see how you fight
F               C
Now you need to rest
  F            Dm
I know you're scared
    Bb             F
But we are alright here
        Bb             F
Pullout bed, pulled up near
         Bb                   F
With the nurses fighting the fever
     Bb            F
Like smoke jumpers leaving
      C             Dm
Their plane for the fire
        Bb             F
And the pilot climb in higher
        Bb                    F
So your dreams they don't get tired
       Bb                   F
Lights blinking around your head
              Bb                        F
You're like a Giant and the city's your bed

[Chorus 2]
C        Bb        F
Rest now beautiful boy
             C           Bb        F
You're gonna make it now beautiful boy

[Instrumental]

[Verse 5]

F                           Bb      F
Sometimes I feel like we're falling fast
F                     C
But we never hit the ground
    F          Dm
And here we'll stay
    Bb           F
And fall another day
        Bb               F
I can't remember what to say
      Bb               F
Where do you think he is
        C               Dm
Does he feel our gentle kiss?
Bb           F
Is he coming back?
      Bb             F
Can I hold him in my lap?
 Bb               F
Away from these machines
    Bb        F
Monitors and IVs
C             Dm
You pour into me
    Bb             F
And I'll pour into you
          C             Bb         F
And we'll do it 'til we break in two

[Verse 6]
F          Bb     F
Oh, my son, it's ok
F                          C
Let the machine breath for you
F             Dm
You'll breath again
   Bb          F
As soon as you can
      Bb           F
Maybe open up your eyes
  Bb             F
I think I saw a smile
       C                Dm
When I put the SOX game on
Bb         F
On the radio
         Bb               F
When the light is getting low
    Bb                F
And still they do not know
       Bb             F
And we can't get any answers

[Bridge]
        C                  Dm
But you know that it ain't dark
       Bb               F
In the middle of Fenway Park
        Bb                         F
And the crowd sings with all their heart

Bb             Bb              Bb             F
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah

[Chorus 3]
C           Bb        F
Rest now my beautiful boy
     C          Bb        F
Oh, rest now my beautiful boy
             C            Bb        F
You're gonna make it now, beautiful boy
