Close your eyes, have no fear, the monster's gone, he's on the run

And your daddy's here

Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful boy

Before you go to sleep, say a little prayer
Everyday, in every way it's getting better and better
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful boy
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful boy

Bm         Bm(maj7) Bm/A     B
Out on the ocean,   sailing away
G            D7   G                  D7
I can hardly wait to see you come of age
G                 D7                   A7
But I guess we'll both just have to be patient!
           G           D7  G             D7              G           D7
Cos it's a long way to go! A hard row to hoe! Yes it's a long way to go
           A7
But in the meantime....

Before you cross the street take my hand
Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful boy
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful boy
