C#
He's got a smile that it seems to me
B9
Reminds me of childhood memories
F#
Where everything was as fresh as the bright blue sky
C#
Now and then when I see his face
B9
It takes me away to that special place
F# C#
and if I stay too long I'd probably break down and cry
G# B9 C#
Oh oh, sweet child of mine
G# B9 C#
Oh, oh, oh, sweet love of mine
SOLO (1/2 of verse)
C#
He's got eyes of the bluest sky
B9
and if they thought of rain
F# C#
I'd hate to look into those eyes and see an ounce of pain
C#
His hair reminds me of a warm safe place
B9
where as a child I'd hide
F# C#
and pray for the thunder and for the rain to quietly pass me by
G# B9 C#
Oh oh sweet child of mine
G# B9 C#
Ooooo oh, oh, oh sweet love of mine

Oh, oh, oh, oh sweet child of mine
G# B9 C#
Hey, hey-hey Oh sweet love of mine
