[Intro]
Verse chords once through.
[Verse]
C G D G
To a boy who looks just like his mother, who's a sister to her brother who
C G D D
sings this song with that boy from far away
[Verse]
C G D G
I am young but you are younger until you speak more words than mumbles,
You'll
C G D D D D
have to lend an ear to everything I say.
[Chorus]
G C
So be kind and love your mother and your father, though sometimes they seem
Em D
to bother, come my age and you'll know
G C
They're the ones who'll always love you and support you, they prayed for you
Em D
before you stepped foot into this world.

That's one thing that I've learned.
[Verse]
C G D G
I remember you were walking, in a month I'll hear you talking. And there's
C G D D
a million things I'd love to say to you.
C G D G
Though your parents, they are wiser and will be better advisers, maybe
C G D D
hearing these things twice will get them through.
[Chorus]
G C
Go and find a girl for whom your love is selfless, someone who makes you
Em D G
helpless, to change the way you feel. But stay away from girls who always
C Em D
look so pretty, whose hearts just aren't fitting for the man in you I see.
Em C G D x2 it's just a jam sess, no lyrics.
Would you remember that for me?
