Verse 1:

A augmentedA      D MajorD
I know you wish

You had a brother who had blue eyes just like you

       D MajorD
I know you wish

                       A augmentedA
You had a sister you could tell your secrets to

        D MajorD
Maybe we'll miss

                  A augmentedA
Having four sets of china on the table

           D MajorD
But I guarantee you this

You mean more to me than branches to a maple

Pink painted walls

          A augmentedA
Your face in my locket

        E MajorE
Your daddy and me

         F# minorF#m
Your tiny back pocket

        D MajorD
Mama's first love

To the innocence of tea parties and daydreams
