[Verse]
D
She's got smile that it seems to me
Cadd9
reminds me of childhood memories,
G D
Where everything was as fresh as the bright blue sky
D
Now and then When I see her face
Cadd9
she takes me away to that special place,
G
and if I stared too long,
D
I'd probably break down and cry
[Chorus]
A C D
Woah, woah, woah, sweet child o' mine
A C D
Woah, oh, oh, oh, sweet love of mine
[Solo 1]
Bass (D Cadd9 G D)
[Verse]
D
She's got eyes of the bluest skies,
Cadd9
as if they thought of rain
G
I hate to look into those eyes
D
and see an ounce of pain
D
Her hair reminds me of a warm safe place
Cadd9
where as a child I'd hide,
G
And pray for the thunder and the rain
D
to quietly pass me by
[Chorus]
A C D
Woah, woah, woah, sweet child o' mine
A C D
Woah, oh, oh, oh, sweet love o' mine
[Solo 2]
Bass (D Cadd9 G D)
At this second solo if you are playing with someone and both of you don't know the
solo, one can play the bass and the other play the intro that I put at the beginning.
[Bridge]
A C D
Woah, oh, oh, oh, sweet child o' mine
A C D
Woah, oh, oh, oh, sweet love o' mine
A C D
Woah, oh, oh, oh, sweet child o' mine
A C D
Woah, oh, oh, oh, sweet love o' mine
[Chorus]
Em G
Where do we go? Where do we go now?
A C D
Where do we go?
Em G
Where do we go? Where do we go?
A C D
Where do we go now?
Em G
Where do we go? Sweet child, where do we go now?
A C D
Where do we go?
Em G
Where do we go? Where do we go now?
A C D
Where do we go?
Em G
Where do we go? Where do we go?
A C D
Where do we go now?
G A C D Em
sweet chiiiiiiiiiiiiiilldddd of mine
So this is my first tab, hope you enjoy.
P.S.: This is a really great song to play with two acoustic guitars.
P.P.S.: That chord Cadd9 is like a G but you put the fingers of the 6 string on the 5
string at the same fret and the one at 5 string goes to 4 string at the same fret and the
strumming is two down, two up, one down and one up.
Good luck and put your rating of my tab and a comment please.

This is 100% right good tab

Tune all strings a half note down to sound exactly as in

(this also plays easier on a acoustic guitar)

Great chords and tabs. Thank you. The lyrics are a bit off up there but if you listen to the song it can easily be sorted out. Great job.
