Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

 In my arms, wish I could hold you forever,

 In my arms, I will give you shelter,

 Still I know, I can't always be there,

 To protect you from this great big old world,

 But I swear this much is true,

 There'll always be a place for you, in my arms.

Verse 2

As I watch you take each breath, oh it scares me to death,

 To know you're counting on me, to be the daddy that you need,

 Wounded knees and broken hearts, learning how to drive a car,

 when it's time for your first date, will I know just what to say,

 And when you find that one true love, I'll put on my best smile,

 and I'll try to hide my tears, as I walk you down the aisle

CHOURS 2x:

 Oh, this promise I will keep

 as you finally fall asleep...in my arms
