       Eb5                     Gb5
    My child arrived just the other day,
       Ab5                       Eb5
    he came to the world in the usual way.
                   ( Eb5 )                Gb5
    But there were planes to catch and bills to pay.
  Ab5                           Eb5 
    He learned to walk while I was away.
               Db5            Db5         B5        B5
    And he was talkin' for I knew it, and as he grew
            Gb5        Bb5     Eb5
    he said I'm gonna be like you dad
        Gb5             Bb5     Eb5
    you know I'm gonna be like you

Chor:
            Eb5                          Db5
    And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon
    Gb5                      Ab5
    little boy blue and the man in the moon
    Eb5                             Db5
    When're you coming home dad, I don't know when
        Gb5       Bb5      Eb5
    but we'll be together then son, 
        Gb5                Bb5       Eb5
    you know we'll have a good time then

    My son turned ten just the other day,

    He said thanks for the ball Dad, come on let's play

    Can you teach me to throw, I said not today

    I got a lot to do, he said thats okay

    And he walked away but his smile never dimmed it said

    I'm gonna be like him yeah, You know I'm gonna be like him.

    Chor

Ver. 3:
   
    Well he came from college just the other day

    So much like a man I just had to say

    Som I'm proud of you. Can you sit for a while

    He shook his head and he said with a smile

    What I'd really like Dad is to borrow the car keys

    See you later, can I have them please.

    Chor ends with:

Ver. 4:
   
    I've long since retired, my son's moved away

    I called him up just the other day

    I said I'd like to see you if you don't mind

    He said I'd love to Dad, if I can find the time

    you see my new job's a hassle and the kids have the flu

    but it's sure nice talking to you Dad,

    It's been sure nice talking to you.
             Db5          Db5       Bb5       Eb5
    And as I hung up the phone it occurred to me
         Gb5       Bb5       Eb5
    He'd grown up just like me
       Gb5      Bb5       Eb5
    My boy was just like me
