  			Intro: G G2 Am D  

Verse 1:  

G  
Little boy, when you speak  
G2  
I can't help but kiss your cheeks  
Am  
I love the way you grab my hands  
D  
And tell me all about your plans  

Verse 2:  

G  
Rocket high, comets fly  
G2  
You and I could take a ride  
Am  
And fly away to Neverland  
D  
And give our best to Peter Pan  

  
           C  
When you reach for the stars  
           Am  
Don't forget who you are  
                    Em                                C  
And please don't turn around and grow up way too fast  
           C        
See the sand in my grasp  
           Am  
From the first to the last  
           Em                          C  
Every grain becomes a memory of the past  
     C              Am  
Oh, life's an hourglass  
D                  G  
Life's an hourglass  

Verse 3:  

Story's read, prayer is said  
Close your eyes sleepyhead  
While angels linger in your dreams  
And hold you in their feathered wings  
Just like you, I was small  
Not that long ago at all  
I wish you all the happiness  
That God gives freely if you ask  

Chorus
