D         D/F#    G   D/F# 
Thank you for the party 
D/F#   G      Asus4 A 
I was glad we came

I'm the only one from the family tonight

I came here with my father

And a last baby boy

A little caboose we called the light of our life

   G      A       Bm      D 
He went over that harbor there 
     G       A7sus4     D 
When he was five years old 
G        A      Bm 
Laughing like a maniac 
Bm             E        Asus4 A 
Shining in the sun like gold 
Bm               C#
