Watching You chords by Rodney Atkins

D
drivin through town just my boy and me, with a happy meal and his booster seat
Cadd9                                G                         D
knowin that he couldnt have his toy till his nuggets were gone
   D
A green traffic light turned straight to red, I hit my brakes and mumbled under my breath
     Cadd9                          G                         D
His fries went a flyin' and his orange drink covered his lap
              G                 A
Well, then my 4 year old said a 4-letter word,
   D             A      G
it started with "s" and I was concerned,
G                                         Em    G    A
So I said son, now where'd you learn, to talk like that.

                     CHORUS
                 D
He said Ive been watchin' you dad ain't that cool,

        G                                A
And eat all my food, and grow as tall as you are.

D
We got back home and I went to the barn, I bowed my head and I prayed real hard,
     Cadd9                G              D
Said Lord please help me help my stupid self
D
Just this side of bedtime later that night, turning on my son's scooby doo night light
   Cadd9                     G               D
He crawled out of bed and he got down on his knees
          G                       A
He closed his little eyes, folded his little hands,
D        A               G
Spoke to God like he was talkin' to a friend,
G                                         Em    G    A
And I said son, now where'd you learn, to pray like that

     C                  G
With tears in my eyes I wrapped him in a hug
        D
Said my little bear is growin' up
    C                    G         A
And he said but when I'm big, I'll still know what to do.
