verse 1
G F
She's got a smile that it seems to me reminds me of childhood memories
C G
Where everything was as fresh as the bright blue sky
G F
Now and then when I see her face she takes me away to that special place
C G
And if I stay here too long I'd probably break down and cry
D F G
O-oh sweet child o' mine
D F G
O-oh-oh-oh sweet love of mine

verse 2
G F
She's got eyes of the bluest skies, as if they thought of rain
C G
I hate to look into those eyes and see an ounce of pain
G F
Her hair reminds me of a warm safe place where as a child I'd lie
C G
And pray for the thunder and the rain to quietly pass me by
D F G
O-oh sweet child o' mine
D F G
O-oh-oh-oh sweet love of mine
