WONDERFUL BABY    (Listen to sample)

 

   G                      F#

Wonderful baby, living on love,

       G                                         E

the sandman says maybe, he'll take you above.

 Am                                   Cm

Up where the girls fly on rhythms and bows,

             G                           Bb                  D

where babies float by just counting their toes.

 

        G                      F#

1. Wonderful baby, nothing but new,

             G                                      E

    the world has gone crazy, I'm glad I'm not you.

   Am                          Cm

    at the beginning, or is it the end

             G                                           Bb       D

    goes in and comes out and starts over again. + CHORUS

 

       C                        Cm

    Wonderful baby, I watch while you grow,

       G                                   E

    if I knew the future you'd be first to know,

         C                                     Cm

    but I don't know nothing of what life's about,

                 G                                 Bb           D

    just as long as you live, you'll never find out.

 

        G                      F#

2. Wonderful baby, nothing to fear,

      G                                E

    laughing you will, but doubt what you hear,

       Am                                             Cm

    They'll whisper sweet things and make you want truth,

                 G                               Bb              D

    so be good to yourself, that's all you can do.    + CHORUS

                 G                            Bb                   D      - G

    Where babies float by just counting there toes.
