       G            A            D   DsusDAsusD
He’s a handsome lad,   that’s my boy

Well, you can have your T.V. and your nightclubs
G                   A                D     DsusDAsus
  You can have your drive-in picture shows
G                 A                D                 G
I’ll sit here and drink a beer and listen to the radio

D                                C
  Makin’ castles out of building blocks
      G             A           D   DsusDAsusD
And a cardboard box,  that’s my boy
                               C
    Mickey Mouse says it’s thirteen o’clock
             G             A                D   DsusDAsus
Well, that’s quite a shock   but, that’s my boy
 
[Chorus 2]
   G                     A                  D      DsusDAsus
In four short years I’ve grown from rags to riches
    G            A                 D    DsusDAsus
And what I did before that I don’t know
      G                      A                D              G
Well, you can let it rain on my window pane I got my own rainbow
               G                   A              D     C     D     C
And we’re just sittin’ here shinin’ Watchin’ Scotty Grow
 
[Verse 3]
D                             C
  Up on Daddy’s shoulders and off to bed
    G           A            D   DsusDAsusD
Ol’ sleepy head    that’s my boy
                                            C
    Gotta have a drink of water and a story read
       G                       A           D   DsusDAsus
An old teddy bear named ‘Fred’   that’s by boy
 
[Chorus 3]
      G                         A                      D         DsusDAsus
Well, what’s that you say Mama, “Come on and keep your feet warm”
G                       A                    D   DsusDAsus
Save me a place I’ll be there in a minute or so,
  G                     A                     D               G
I think I’ll stay right here and say a little prayer before I go
       G             A              D
‘Cause me and God are Watchin’ Scotty Grow
G             A               D       F        G       A      D
Me and God are Watchin’ Scotty Grow
