Again, I couldn't always hear the difference between Em/Em7 and C/Cadd9 etc. but I think I got it pretty close. Enjoy! [Intro] G Em C D x2 [Verse 1]
G               Em7
 I’m five years old 

              C
It’s getting cold 

            D
I’ve got my big coat on 

G            Em7
 I hear your laugh 

            C
And look up smiling at you 

  D
I run and run 

G                 Em7
 Past the pumpkin patch 

                C
And the tractor rides look now,

    D
The sky is gold 

G           Em7             C
 I hug your legs and fall asleep 

   D
On the way home
[Chorus]
C        D                G            D/F#   Em
 I don’t know why all the trees change in the fall

C       D                    G  D/F#     Em
 I know you’re not scared of anything at all 

C              D                     G       D/F#  Em
 Don’t know if Snow White’s house is near or far away 

                     C             D        G Em7 C D
But I know I had the best day with you today
[Verse 2]
G             Em7
 I’m thirteen now

               C
And don’t know how my friends 

      D
Could be so mean 

G            Em7
 I come home crying 

        C
And you hold me tight 

    D
And grab the keys 

G                   Em7
 And we drive and drive 

             C
Until we found a town 

     D
Far enough away 

G                Em7
 And we talk and window-shop 

      C              D
'til I’ve forgotten all their names
[Chorus]
C        D                  G       D/F#   Em
 I don’t know who I’m gonna talk to now at school 

C           D               G        D/F#      Em
 I know I’m laughing on the car ride home with you 

C               D               G       D/F#  Em
 Don’t know how long it’s gonna take to feel okay 

                     C             D        G
But I know I had the best day with you today
[Bridge]
C
 I have an excellent father 

Em
 His strength is making me stronger 

C
 God smiles on my little brother 

Em                   D
 Inside and out he’s better than I am

C                      G
 I grew up in a pretty house 

          D/F#
And I had space to run 

    C         D
And I had the best days with you 

G           Em7
 There is a video 

  C                    D
I found from back when I was three 

G             Em7               C
 You set up a paint set in the kitchen 

           D
And you’re talking to me 

G                Em7            C
 It’s the age of princesses and pirate ships 

        D
And the seven dwarves 

G                  Em7                  C
And Daddy’s smart and you're the prettiest lady

       D
In the whole wide world
[Chorus]
C      D                G            D/F#   Em
 Now I know why all the trees change in the fall 

C                D          G         D/F#  Em
 I know you were on my side even when I was wrong 

      C                   D
And I love you for giving me your eyes 

G        D/F#     Em
 Staying back and watching me shine 

   C                 D
And I didn’t know if you knew 

       G           D/F#      Em
So I’m taking this chance to say 

               C             D        G
That I had the best day with you today
