 [D] And there's a car park where the pally used to  [G] stand.                        
My sister's  [G] married and she lives on an estate.

 [C] She knows they get away with  [G] things she never could,                         
 [D] But if I asked her I [G] wonder if she would,                                     
                                                                                       
[Chorus]

[Verse 1]
 
D
She's got a smile that it seems to me
  C
Reminds me of childhood memories
       G
Where everything
                                D
Was as fresh as a bright blue sky
D
Now and then when I see her face
    C
She takes me away to that special place
         G
And if I stared too long
                              D
I'd probably break down and cry
  
[Chorus] 
Am              C              D
Whoa oh, sweet child o' mine
Am              C              D
Whoa, oh, oh, oh sweet love o' mine

[Verse 2] 
D
She's got eyes of the bluest skies
   C
As if they thought of rain
    G
I'd hate to look into those eyes
    D
And see an ounce of pain
    D
Her hair reminds me of a warm safe place
      C
Where as a child I'd hide
    G
And pray for the thunder and rain
     D
To quietly pass me by
 
[Chorus] 
Am       C              D
Whoa oh, oh, sweet child o' mine
Am             C                D
Whoa, oh, oh, oh sweet love o' mine
