CAPO: 2nd Fret


INTRO: E minorEm D MajorD C majorC D MajorD

  G+G    E minorEm G+G       E minorEm C majorC
How old was I, five or six or so
       G+G   C majorC     D MajorD
The innocent years, long ago
  G+G       E minorEm   G+G       E minorEm  C majorC
My father on his chair, reaching up so far
       G+G       C majorC  D MajorD  G+G
Crowning the tree, with that old tin star

CHORUS:
   B minorBm     C majorC      E minorEm    D MajorD   G+G  E minorEm
And it shines so pretty, like diamonds in the sun
      D MajorD     C majorC     D MajorD
Nothing but good things will ever come
      C majorC      G+G      C majorC   D MajorD   G+G
Little girl don't grow up, stay as sweet as you are
    C majorC        E minorEm      D MajorD    G+G
May you always find the wonder of that old tin star


      E minorEm G+G        E minorEm  C majorC
When I grew up, found a place to live
         G+G   C majorC        D MajorD
And I unpacked my things, I found a gift
    G+G     E minorEm      G+G        E minorEm
And it felt like home, though I'd traveled so far
    C majorC      G+G       C majorC  D MajorD  G+G
'Cause there in my hands was that old tin star


CHORUS:
     B minorBm     C majorC      E minorEm    D MajorD   G+G  E minorEm
And now it shines so pretty, like diamonds in the sun
      D MajorD      C majorC     D MajorD
Nothing but good things will ever come
    C majorC        G+G      C majorC   D MajorD   G+G
Little girl don't grow up, stay as sweet as you are
    C majorC       E minorEm      D MajorD    G+G   B minorBm
May you always gaze in wonder at that old tin star


(CHORUS:
     C majorC    E minorEm    D MajorD   G+G  E minorEm
Shines so pretty, diamonds in the sun
      D MajorD     C majorC     D MajorD   C majorC  G+G  C majorC  D MajorD  G+G  C majorC  E minorEm  D MajorD  G+G
Nothing but good things will ever come)

         E minorEm    G+G         E minorEm  C majorC
I have kids of my own, and troubles, I've had some
        G+G       C majorC    D MajorD
I've cried some tears and I've had my fun
   G+G       E minorEm     G+G      E minorEm
Now I climb up that chair and I reach out so far
  C majorC       G+G     C majorC  D MajorD  G+G
And my child looks up at that old tin star


CHORUS:
     B minorBm        C majorC      E minorEm    D MajorD   G+G  E minorEm
'Cause it still shines so pretty, like diamonds in the sun
      D MajorD     C majorC     D MajorD
Nothing but good things will ever come
    C majorC        G+G      C majorC   D MajorD   G+G
Little girl don't grow up, stay as sweet as you are
    C majorC       E minorEm       D MajorD    C majorC
May you always gaze in wonder at that old tin star
