My little one

Em B7

1. My little one as the years go by,

Em

there may be time when your heart will cry,

E E7 Am

and if you’re in need of a word of cheer,

C Am - B7

you can always turn to me.

Em B7

2. My little one, though I love you so,

Em

there’ll come a day I must let you go.

E E7 Am

But you have my love for eternity,

Em B7 Em - Am - B7

little one, you are everything to me.

Em B7

3. (spoken, chords = verse 2) My darling, I love you so much,

so much, there’s nothing in the world,

Em

nothing that I wouldn’t do for you.

E

And it gives me such a wonderful feeling,

E7 Am

to know your mind fills me with more happiness

than I’ve ever known before

Em - B7

and each night as you slip off to dreamland,

Em - Am - B7

I thank heaven for giving me you.
