From the album: The Hands of Man (2014) Comment for any corrections and please rate Intro: Am F Dm G
        Am                F
 Empty rooms, childhood's end

            Dm            G
 Forgotten toys upon the bed

             F                       C
 Dreams and memories are all around me now

            G                       F
 And I can see you everywhere I look

            Am                    F
 But moving on is what you must do

            Dm             G
 Find your way, be happy to

                F                          C
 Your world is waiting now and you need never know

                G            C
 Of all these places that I go

F                    E
 To hear the laughter and dry the tears

    Am       Em       F
 Remembering all the years

                       C
 When you were growing up 

                  G                 C
 And every photograph can take me there

F                       E
 We brought you up to be proud and strong

      Am       Em   F
 And ready for anything

                     C   G
 Oh little child of mine

                  C  F G
 What life can bring

        Am                F
 Empty rooms when I left home

              Dm               G
 I could not wait to be moving on

                  F                   C
 I never thought so much about those left behind

             G                  C
 But now I know how it has to be

F                    E
 To hear the laughter and dry the tears

    Am       Em       F
 Remembering all the years

                       C
 When you were growing up 

                  G                    C
 And every photograph still takes me there

F                       E
 We brought you up to be proud and strong

    Am           Em      F
 In everything that you do

             C          G          Am F
 Oh little child of mine I miss you

                 C      G          C Fm
 Oh little child of mine I love you

            C
 I love you
