[Intro] D Em G D Em G [Verse] D Daddy, when you were a little kid G what did you dream you'd be G When you grew up D And daddy, did you think that G you'd play ball in the major leagues G Cranking home runs Em And did you want to be an astronaut D Maybe the president G Or maybe not grow up at all like Peter Pan [Chorus] Bm Well son I dreamt that A G I'd be big and strong like Superman Bm Or a better man than him A Thought that I'd get rich G and get a big old house on D a big old piece of land Em G Then you showed up and wrecked my life Bm Son you helped me realize that A G being dad to you is a dream D Em G I never had come true [Verse] D Son, don't ever lose sight of G that little boy inside of you G When you grow up D Son, hope you always hear G your mama's voice reminding you G Where you come from Em If you ever feel like giving up D Like you're a million miles away G Remember all those innocent dreams and they'll all fall into place [Chorus] Bm A If you dream of growing big G and strong like Superman Bm You be a better man than him A If one day you get rich and G get a big old house hope D you think of your old man Em G When a girl shows up and wrecks your life Bm Makes you realize A G what a grown man's gotta do when the dream D Em G he never had comes true D Em Gmaj7 Dream he never had comes true [Bridge] Em7 Well I never was an astronaut D Never met the president G Watching you grow up has been my best accomplishment [Out-Chorus] Bm I thought that I'd be A G big and strong like Superman Bm But we both know I ain't him A G And I have fallen down a time or two but I get back up again D Em G Since you showed up and wrecked my life Bm Son you helped me realize A G I still have growing up to do Bm7 A G My son growing up with you is a dream D Em G I never had come true D Em G Dream I never had come true
