D         E
I'll smile if I want to
C#m                     D
I'm not afraid, gonna flaunt it too
D                        E          C#m D
What a glow when you're living true!
D           E
I'm livin' for the "right now"
C#m           D
I had a few friends show me how
D               E
I take a deep breath and blow it out
      C#m D
Let it go

          D         E C#m             D
But listen I can't wait to see what's around
that corner
D        E      C#m  D
I can't wait to soar
D               E       C#m            D
Oh baby when I lie awake, and I watch you sleeping,
thinking
D                 E                 A
It's the little things that make a home yeah

Chorus:
     D                               E
Like Dancing in the kitchen in the pale moonlight
          C#m              D
Our only care in the world is that our kids
are alright
D                     E
Daddy loves Mama and Mama loves him
C#m                 D
Tomorrow we get to do it over again
      D                E
So, smile at me baby, take my breath away
          C#m                       D
With the good Lord willing I'll be happy to say
      D                   E
That Daddy loves Mama and Mama loves him
    C#m                         D
Tomorrow we get to do it over again

I feel like I'm gonna win
And I'm as proud as I've ever been
Cause I'm surrounded with some good friends
Yeah, good friends, good friends

I'm forever like a tattoo, yeah
I stay sticky 'cause I gotta be the glue for
My girl, my friends, my home, family, I do it all

Truly, I can't wait
To see what's around the corner
I can't wait to soar
But baby, I lie awake and I watch you sleeping,
thinking
It's the little things that make a home
Yeah

Chorus:
'Cause we'll be dancing in the kitchen in
the pale moonlight
Only care in the world is that our kids are alright
Daddy loves momma and momma loves him
Tomorrow, we get to do it over again
So smile at me, baby, take my breath away
With the good Lord willing, I'll be happy to say
That daddy loves momma and momma loves him
Tomorrow, we get to do it over again

     E              A                          B
We found our home, something we can build for years
     E             A                           B
The young and old, I'll be there to wipe your tears
   C#m
We all get to see
         A
Who we grow up to be
    E
And anchor when in doubt
   B
An ocean when in drought
   C#m
We aim for it all
    A
We lift up these walls
    E                   B
To make this house our home

Chorus:
Dancing in the kitchen in the pale moonlight
Only care in the world is that our kids are alright
Daddy loves momma and momma loves him
Tomorrow, we get to do it over again
So smile at me, baby, take my breath away
With the good Lord willing, I'll be happy to say
That daddy loves momma and momma loves him
Tomorrow, we get to do it over again

Dancing in the kitchen in the pale moonlight
Only care in the world is that our kids are alright
Daddy loves momma and momma loves him
Tomorrow, we get to do it over again
So smile at me, baby, take my breath away
With the good Lord willing, I'll be happy to say
That daddy loves momma and momma loves him
Tomorrow, we get to do it over again
