[Intro]
D - G - D - G - D - D

[Verse 1]
D A
There he sits with a pen and a yellow pad
G A D
What a handsome lad, that's my boy
D A
BRLFQ spells mom and dad
G A D
Well, that ain't too bad, 'cause that's my boy

[Chorus 1]
G A D
Well, you can have your TV and your nightclubs
G A Bm
And you can have your drive-in picture show
G A D Bm
I'll stay here with my little man near, we'll listen to the radio
G A D
Biding my time and watching Scotty grow

[Verse 2]
Makin' a castle out of building blocks
And a cardboard box, that's my boy
Mickey Mouse says it's thirteen o'clock
Well, that's quite a shock, that's my boy

[Chorus 2]

In four short years I've gone from rags to riches
And what I did before that I don't know
So let it rain on my windowpane, I got my own rainbow
And we're sittin' here shinin' watching Scotty grow

[Bridge]

D7
D A
Riding on daddy's shoulders off to bed
G A D
Old sleepy head, that's my boy
D A
Gotta have a drink of water and a story read
G A D
A teddy bear named Fred, that's my boy

[Chorus 3]
What's that you say mama, come on and keep your feet warm
Well save me a place, I'll be there in a minute or so
I think I'll stay right here and say a little prayer before I go
Me and God, watching Scotty grow

Me and God, watching Scotty grow
