Always Be a Child

E                              A                         E
I was there when you drew the breath of life
                G#m
And I could hear your voice
     A                         B
The first time that you cried
      E
And though you couldn't see me
G#m        A
I was very near
                 E
And there's something now
      B7                 E
That I want you to hear

Chorus
E                           A              E
You will always be a child in my eyes
G#m
And when you need some love
     A                   B
My arms are open wide
      E
And even when you're growing old
 G#m           A
I hope you realize
            E                B7
You will always be a child in my eyes

And I was there the first time that you prayed
And I heard all the promises you made
And when you fell before me
Crying father I have sinned
I picked you up
And held you close again.

Chorus
(Repeat Chords in First Chorus)
You will always be a child in my eyes
And when you need some love
My arms are open wide

And even when you're growing old
I hope you realize
You will always be a child in my eyes

Chorus
(Repeat Chords in First Chorus)
You will always be a child in my eyes
And when you need some love
My arms are open wide
And even when you're growing old
I hope you realize
You will always be a child in my eyes.

E                           B7              E
You will always be a child in my eyes.
