     F#
     Finally I've met you
     The day has come
     You're more than beautiful
     And you're my son
     E
     I don't deserve this
     I never thought it could be
     F#
     Quite like the moment
     When you first smiled at me
     E
     A toothless, wonderful feeling
     Like I'd never seen
     F#
     It's you, Noah, it's you

    DaddA        DaddG#        DaddA
     And when you lie down to sleep
     I'll protect you
     DaddG#
     From the demons of the night
F# G               A         B
     While I'm watching you grow
     B      A
     I'll pray
     E
     There's so much I could teach you
             B
     If you only have the time
         A
     Pray
     E
     There's so much God can teach you
             B
     If you only have the time
     F#
     So will you tell me the little things?
     What does God look like?
     And angels' wings?
     E
     I don't remember these things
     So would you teach them to me?
     F#
     So for the moment
     I'll watch you breathe
     E
     And when you wake up in the morning
     And I pour the coffee
     F#
     You're always smiling sweetly

     DaddA        DaddG#        DaddA
     And when you lie down to sleep
     I'll protect you
     DaddG#
     From the demons of the night
F# G               A         B
     While I'm watching you grow
     B      A
     I'll pray
     E
     There's so much I could teach you
             B
     If you only have the time
         A
     Pray
     E
     There's so much God can teach you
             B
     If you only have the time
