C I think about my little girl Her yellow skin and her dark curls F G And how her father's heart was frozen I spoke to her and I said: "You won't regret the mother you have chosen" C F I lied G C Where is she tonight? I left him, now we're apart And I think about his cruel heart And how his lies have left mine broken To think that I spoke to him then I said: "She won't regret the father she has chosen" I lied Where's he tonight? You were precious to me After all I called you into being I wanted you to know that Yes, you were precious to me She has chosen And I miss my little boy I strayed away, so far away And I need him tonight To feel his hands around my face His loving eyes His happy face Would be so right Once I sat in my husband's car Him in my arms, woke up and saw me crying My heart wouldn't work And this he did my special child He touched my face with his hand and smiled Oh boy, everything's all right Don't cry, everything's all right Don't cry, Jakes's here tonight Don't hide, Jake's here alive You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsC  F  G  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
