I'm five years old
             C            D
It's getting cold, got my big coat on
G           Em
I hear your laugh
               C                D
And look up at smilin at you, I run and run
G                Em
Past the pumpkin patch
                C                    D
And the tractor rides, Look now, the sky is gold
G          Em
I hug your legs
         C                 D
And fall asleep on the way home


C       D                G            *      Em
I don't know why all the trees change in the fall
C          D                    G     *      Em
But I know you're not scared of anything at all
C             D                     G      *     Em
Don't know if Snow White's house is near or far away
                     C        D        G

G      Em
I'm 13 now
               C                    D
And don't know how my friends could be so mean
G           Em
I come home crying
                C         D
and you hold me tight and grab the keys
G                Em
And we drive and drive
                C        D
Until we find a town far enough away
G               Em
And we talk and window shop
        C         D
Til Ive forgotten all their names


C       D               G      *    Em
I don't know who I'm gonna talk to now at school
C       D                     G    *     Em
But I know I'm laughin on the car ride home with you
C              D            G     *    Em
Don't know how long it's gonna take to feel okay
                     C        D        G

His strength is making me stronger

Inside and out, he's better than I am...


C              D                G              Em
I grew up in a pretty house and I had space to run
              C         D
And I had the best days with you


G          Em
There is a video
  C                    D

G            Em
You set up a paint set
       C                  D
in the kitchen and you're talkin to me
G               Em

and pirate ships and the seven dwarfs
G          Em

C       D              G          *        Em

      C                   D                          G    *           Em
And I love you for giving me your eyes, staying back and watching me shine


    C             D                   G           *       Em
