B
Little girl lost
In a forest of dreams.
It's a dark old wood
         F#
And it's damp with dew.
Hoot owl hoots
For a moment it seems
E
Something big and cold
      F#
Got a hold of you.
G#m       F#              E
Just when everything gets scary,
                            F#sus4   F#
Daddy's come 'round for his darlin' again.
G#m     F#        E
Hold my hand with your little fingers.
                          F#sus4     F#
Daddy's loving arms gonna gather you in.
B                F#
Ain't no way the Bogeyman can get you,
                             B
You can close your eyes, the world is gonna let you,
                      E
Your daddy's here and never will forget you,
F#              B
I will take you home.
F#              B
I will take you home.
G#m   E              B          G#m
Gonna carry you back home in my arms.
E               B
I will take you home.
B
Long is the road
We must travel on down.
Short are the legs
           F#
That will struggle behind.
I wish I  knew for sure
Just where we're bound,
E
What we will be doin'
                F#
And what we're gonna find.
G#m          F#               E
Wherever we go, there will be birds to cheer you
                         F#
Flowers to color in the fields around.
G#m          F#          E
Wherever we go, I'll be right here near you
                        F#
You can't get lost when you're always found.
B                   F#
Ain't no fog that's thick enough to hide you
                                B
Your daddy's gonna be right here beside you
                      E
If your fears should start to get inside you.
F#              B
I will take you home.
F#              B
I will take you home.
G#m    E              B
Gonna carry you back home
      G#m
In my arms.
E               B
I will take you home.
