CAPO: 2nd Fret
INTRO: Em D C D
How [G]old was [Em]I, [G]five or six or [Em]so[C]
The innocent [G]years,[C] long ago[D]
My [G]father on his [Em]chair, [G]reaching up so [Em]far[C]
Crowning the [G]tree, with that[C] old [D]tin [G]star
CHORUS:
And it[Bm] shines so [C]pretty, like [Em]diamonds [D]in the [G]sun[Em]
Nothing but [D]good things[C] will ever [D]come
Little girl[C] don't grow [G]up, stay as [C]sweet [D]as you [G]are
May you [C]always find the [Em]wonder of that[D] old tin [G]star
When I grew [Em]up, [G]found a place to [Em]live[C]
And I unpacked my [G]things,[C] I found a gift[D]
And it [G]felt like [Em]home, though [G]I'd traveled so [Em]far
'Cause [C]there in my [G]hands was that[C] old [D]tin [G]star
CHORUS:
And now it[Bm] shines so [C]pretty, like [Em]diamonds [D]in the [G]sun[Em]
Nothing but [D]good things [C]will ever [D]come
Little [C]girl don't grow [G]up, stay as [C]sweet [D]as you [G]are
May you [C]always gaze in [Em]wonder at that[D] old tin [G]star[Bm]
(CHORUS:
Shines so [C]pretty, [Em]diamonds [D]in the [G]sun[Em]
Nothing but [D]good things[C] will ever [D]come)[C][G][C][D][G][C][Em][D][G]
I have kids of my [Em]own, and [G]troubles, I've had [Em]some[C]
I've cried some [G]tears and I've[C] had my f[D]un
Now I [G]climb up that [Em]chair and I [G]reach out so [Em]far
And [C]my child looks [G]up at that[C] old [D]tin [G]star
CHORUS:
'Cause it[Bm] still shines so [C]pretty, like [Em]diamonds [D]in the [G]sun[Em]
Nothing but [D]good things[C] will ever [D]come
Little [C]girl don't grow [G]up, stay as [C]sweet [D]as you [G]are
May you [C]always gaze in [Em]wonder at that [D]old tin [C]star
Little [G]girl don't grow [Em]up, stay as [C]sweet [D]as you [G]are
May you [C]always gaze in [Em]wonder at that [D]old [C]tin [G]star
