F#m D F#m D
What do I do with all the children's clothes
C Em Em D
such tiny things that still smell of them
F#m D F#m D
And the footprints in the hallway
C Em Em D
onto my knees scrub them away
( F#m D F#m D )
( C Em D )
F#m D F#m D
And how to be of use make the tea and the soup
C Em Em D
All of their favorites throw them away
F#m D F#m D
And all their schoolbooks and the running shoes
C Em Em D
Washing and cleaning the dirty still sink
( F#m D F#m D )
( C Em D )
F#m E D
Routine keeps me in line
F#m E D
Helps me pass the time
C#m B A
Concentrate my mind
F G A
Helps me to sleep
F#m D F#m D
And keep making beds and keep the cat fed
C Em Em D
Open the windows let the air in
F#m D F#m D
And keep the house clean and keep the routine
C Em Em D
Paintings they make still stuck to the fridge
F#m D F#m D
La-la la-da la-la la-da
C Em Em D
Da-da-da la-la-da-da

Em A Dsus2 D
The most beautiful morning forever
Em A Dsus2 D
Like the ones from far off, far off away
Em A Dsus2 D
With the hum of the bees in the jasmine sway
Em A
Don't ever let go
Dsus2 D
Try to let go
Em A
Don't ever let go
Dsus2 D
Try to let go
Em A Dsus2 D
Don't ever
