D D/C#

Now I lay me down to sleep

D/B D/A D

I pray to the Lord my baby's soul to keep

A

And thats all I ask

D D/C#

Now he believes in the Golden Rule

D/B D/A D

Santa and the Old Lady who lived in a shoe

Em G D

I'm his guiding hand, and he's my best friend

Now he is just a little boy

We build bridges with nothing more than tinker-toys

that we'll cross again

He stumbles through the living room doing his best

To fill his daddy's shoes

Yes he wants to be just like me.

chorus

A D

In his eyes I'm a hero

A D

But he don't know how that scares me

G G/F# Em A D

I'm so much less than a Superman

C C/B A

But for him I'll try to be

Bridge:

Bm Bm/A

Cause one day he'll be gone so far from home

G A Bm

To old to hold my hand

G G/F# Em

And I'll be his biggest fan

G G/F# Em A D

And he'll still be Daddy's little man

He climbs in bed with mister bear

Closes his eys to say his bed time prayer.

He says "Daddys great and God is good,

let us thank him for our food." and

God understood, he knows how children do

God was a daddy too.

repeat
