Chords in this song · guitar

Here’s to you

You were pink or blue

And everything I wanted

Here’s to you

Never sleeping through

From midnight till the morning

Em D

Had to crawl before you walked

Before you ran

Before I knew it

Em D G

You were trying to free your fingers from my hand

Am D

‘Cause you could it on your own now somehow

Slow down

Won’t you stay here a minute more

Em C

I know you want to walk through the door

But it’s all too fast

Let’s make it last a little while

Em C

I pointed to the sky and now you wanna fly

Am G

I am your biggest fan

Am G

I hope you know I am

Am D

But do you think you can somehow

G C D

Slow down

Here’s to you

Every missing tooth

Every bedtime story

G C

Here’s to Barbie cars, light saber wars

And sleeping in on Sundays

Had to crawl

Before you walked

Before you ran

Before I knew it

You were teaching me

D G

The only thing love can

Hold hands through it

Am D

When it’s scary, you’ve got me

Slow down

Won’t you stay here a minute more

Em C

I know you want to walk through the door

But it’s all too fast

Let’s make it last a little while

Em C

I pointed to the sky and now you wanna fly

Am G

I am your biggest fan

Am G

I hope you know I am

Am D

But do you think you can somehow

G C D

Slow down

D Am

Please don’t roll your eyes at me

C D

I know I’m embarrassing

Em C

But someday you’ll understand

You’ll hold a little hand

Ask them if they can

Slow down

Won’t you stay here a minute more

Em C

I know you want to walk through the door

But it’s all too fast

Let’s make it last a little while

Em C

I pointed to the sky and now you wanna fly

Am G

I am your biggest fan

Am G

I hope you know I am

Am D

But do you think you can somehow

G C D
