        D                 G                   C        D                              G

1.  This is for Rosanna, sweet girl of mine, a song for the baby

              C               D                       G                C           D

    who changed my life, I'll never forget when I saw you first,

       Em                    Bm               C                    D              G  - D

    I thought that my heart would burst, with the love that I have.

                              G               C        D                                  G

2. As I watch you sleeping in here tonight, and I hear your breathing

          C           D                       G                   C                D

    so soft and light,  I cannot believe all the things that I feel,

                Em         Bm       C               D               G - C - D

    when I hold you next to me, it's the love that I have.

     G                 C                        G                   C            D

    Oh how my heart it is shining, oh how my heart it is shining, 

    G                  C          D       Em-Bm-C                D              G

    oh how my heart is shining  through,   with the love that I have.

                             G                  C           D                         G

3. And as you are growing from baby to child, I share the wonders

                 C          D                         G                  C              D

    that are in your eyes, and I am amazed at the way you change,

            Em      Bm        C                   D              G    - D

    all according to the plan, and the love that I have.

                                   G                  C      D                      G

4. And when you are older you will go away, you'll see injustice

             C            D                         G                 C           D

    and you'll see pain, but never forget that I'm always there,

               Em     Bm          C                   D               G

    like a shadow by your side, with the love that I have.

   Em  Bm   C            Am             G          D

    Oh  my  love, you have your mother's eyes,

                       Em   Bm    C             Am              G            D

    and when I see   you  laugh, you have your mother's smile,

                         C                   D                   C                     D

    and you are mine all of my life, you are mine, all of my love,

                   C                           D                    Em - C-D-G / C-D / G-C-D

    you are mine, blood of my blood, you are mine.

   G                  C              D         G    C                           D

   Oh how my heart it is shining,  oh how my heart it is shining,     

   G                  C            D        Em - Bm - C               D              G

   oh how my heart it is shining     through -- with the love that I have.
