Watching You(Chords)

	        INTRO: D  G  D  G  

VERSE I:  
D 
Drivin? through town just my boy and me  

With a happy meal in his booster seat 
Bb                                                    C                                     D 
Knowin? that he couldn?t have the toy ?til his nuggets were gone. 
D 
A green traffic light turned straight to red   

I hit my brakes and mumbled under my breath.  
Bb                                                C                                    D 
His fries went a flyin?, and his orange drink covered his lap  
                           G                       A 
Well, then my 4 year old said a four letter word  
         Bm           A       G 
It started with S and I was concerned  
     G                      D/F#                      Em D/F# G   A
So I said, son, now where?d you learn to talk like that  

                                 D 
He said, I?ve been watching you, dad ain?t that cool  
                        A 
 I?m your buckaroo, I want to be like you  
                G                                          A 
 And eat all my food and grow as tall as you are  
                 D 
 We got cowboy boots and camo pants  
                        A               
 Yeah, we?re just alike, hey, ain?t we dad  
     G        A     G      A           G                   A 
 I want to do everything you do  
                                       D  G 
 So I?ve been watching you  



VERSE II:  
D 
 We got back home and I went to the barn  

I bowed my head and I prayed real hard  
Bb                                     C                           D 
 Said, lord, please help me help my stupid self  
D 
 Just this side of bedtime later that night  

Turnin? on my son?s Scooby-doo nightlight  
Bb                                            C                         D 
 He crawled out of bed and he got down on his knees  
                  G                              A 
He closed his little eyes, folded his little hands  
Bm              A                          G 
 Spoke to god like he was talkin? to a friend  
  G                            D/F#                        Em D/F# G   A 
 And I said, son, now where?d you learn to pray like that  

                                D 
 He said, I?ve been watching you, dad ain?t that cool  
                 A 
 I?m your buckaroo; I want to be like you  
                 G                                              A 
 And eat all my food and grow as tall as you are  
                D 
 We like fixin? things and holding momma?s hand  
                       A 
 Yeah, we?re just alike, hey, ain?t we dad  
    G         A     G      A         G                      A 
 I want to do everything you do;  
                                   D 
 so I?ve been watching you  



BRIDGE: 
         C                         G                      D 
 With tears in my eyes I wrapped him in a hug  
                
 Said, my little bear is growin? up  
       C                             G        
And he said, but when I?m big  
      Em       D/F#    A
I?ll still know what to do  

Chorus:   
                              D 
?cause I?ve been watching you, dad ain?t that cool  
                         A   
 I?m your buckaroo? I want to be like you  
                   G                                      A 
And eat all my food and grow as tall as you are  
          D 
 By then I?ll be strong as superman  
           A 
 We?ll be just alike, hey, won?t we dad  
           G      A    G        A          G               A 
 When I can do everything you do 
                                           D 
 ?cause I?ve been watchin? you
