In My Arms


THIS IS A GREAT SONG FOR ALL PARENTS. CAPO 2ND FRET G Em Three a.m. on the clock, lullaby music box C Am Oh, baby please don't cry, let's let mama sleep tonight, G Em You've only been home one day, you don't even know your name, C Am tiny hand on my cheek, you're a miracle to me, Em D In the stillness of the night, cradled in this rocking chair, Em D I hold all my hopes and dreams, every single answered prayer. CHOURS: G G7 In my arms, wish I could hold you forever, C Cadd9 Am In my arms, I will give you shelter, G G7 Still I know, I can't always be there, C Cadd9 Am To protect you from this great big old world, C But I swear this much is true, D G There'll always be a place for you, in my arms. VERSE 2: G Em As I watch you take each breath, oh it scares me to death, C Am To know you're counting on me, to be the daddy that you need, G Em Wounded knees and broken hearts, learning how to drive a car, C Am when it's time for your first date, will I know just what to say, Em D And when you find that one true love, I'll put on my best smile, Em D and I'll try to hide my tears, as I walk you down the aisle CHOURS 2x: C Oh, this promise I will keep Am D G as you finally fall asleep...in my arms
