Little boy kneels at the foot of the bed 
              C             G           D

"God bless Mommy, I know that's right 
    C         G          D      G 
And wasn't it fun in the bath tonight 
    C         G            D        G 
The cold's so cold and the hot's so hot 
C         G        D        G 
God bless Daddy, I quite forgot" 
  
  
      C       G           D          G 
"If I open my eyes just a little bit more 
      C           G             D      G 
I can see Nanny's dressing-gown on the door 
       C         G            C            D 
It's a beautiful blue, but it hasn't got a hood 
C         G         D        G 
God bless Nanny and make her good" 
  
  
 C          G          D      G 
"Mine has a hood and I lie in bed 
      C        G          D       G 
And I pull the hood right over my head 
      C       G          C       D 
And I shut my eyes and I curl up small 
    C      G              D        G 
And nobody knows that I'm there at all" 
  
  
 C         G          D      G 
"Thank you God, for a lovely day 
    C            G       D         G 
And what was the other I wanted to say? 
  C            G          C             D 
I said, 'Bless Daddy', so what could it be? 
C       G        D         G 
Now I remember, 'God bless me'" 
  
  
D          C             G           D 
Little boy kneels at the foot of the bed
