Sonny boy

C - C7 - A - Dm - F - G - C - Dm - G - C - F - C

Climb upon my knee, Sonny Boy,
Though you′re only three, Sonny Boy,
You've no way of knowing, there′s no way of showing,
D D7 G - G7
What you mean to me, Sonny Boy.


When there are grey skies, I don't mind the grey skies,
C B7 G - G7
You make them blue, Sonny Boy.
Friends may forsake me, let them all forsake me,
C Dm G C - F - C
You'll pull me through, Sonny Boy.

You′re sent from Heaven, and I know your worth,
You′ve made a heaven for me, right here on Earth.
For if the angels grow lonely, take you 'cause they′re lonely,
C Dm G C - Am - F - G
I'll follow you, Sonny Boy.

+ instrumental = CHORUS

You′re sent from Heaven, and I know your worth,
You've made a heaven for me, right here on Earth.
For if the angels grow lonely, take you ′cause they're lonely,
C Dm G C - F - C
I'll follow you, Sonny Boy.
