C     Am7    Dm7    G

[Verse]
C                     Am7     F                    C
The wait turned into hours      before you came my way
                          Am7                F                 G
The smile that filled a daddy's heart          on the special day
F                      C                  Dm7                   C
The moment left me speechless            I didn't know what to say
Dm                          C          F              G5
Then you took your first breath       that took mine away

[Chorus]
Am               Em          F                  C
Days go by so quickly          summer turns to fall
Am                  Em          F                    G
Seems like only yesterday        that you began to crawl
    C                    Em                          F            Fm
So don't be afraid   to take that step     I'll catch you if you fall
Dm                       C                F         G            C
I don't mind    if you leave behind    a few hand prints on the wall

[Outro]
Am7      F      G       C

[Verse]
  C                     Am7       F                 C
I can't describe this feeling       way down deep inside
                 Am7                  F                  G
The itsy-bitsy spider       was the first thing that we tried

F                C                            Dm7           C
Patty cake the baker's man         with your hands so very small
Dm                C                          F               G
You could always stay this young     and I wouldn't mind at all

[Chorus]
Am               Em          F                   C
Days go by so quickly          summer turns to fall
Am                 Em        F                     G
Seems like only yesterday      that you began to crawl
    C                     Em                            F          Fm
So don't be afraid    to take that step     I'll catch you if you fall
Dm                       C               F         G                 C
 I don't mind   if you leave behind   a few hand prints .....on the wall
