D                           Em
Don't you know i wish i was closer?
                C
I'd be watching over,
                  D
And if you're too small to see
                    Em
I'll lift you on my shoulders
          G                 C
If you're feeling low, i'll hold you

                        Em
I wanna be there in the morning
       C                        G
So i'm working through the night
                         Em
And i'll be smiling into your name
            C                   G
When you're robbing those brown eyes
                             Em
And if you'll ever leave me, call me
        C                  G
I wanna make sure you're alright
           Bm       Am  Bm   C
I don't wanna be so far from home
                             Em
You know you're daddy little soldier
         C                 G
And your mother's handsome knight
                          Em
No, don't you worry about darkness
              C            G
'Cause you're carrying the light!
          Bm                Am     Bm C
And those shadows fall when you're around!

                                Em   C       G
I want you close to me like sun birds on the trees
                                  Em     C          G
'Cause when you're close to me my worries flee from me
                            Bm                   Am
'Cause when i'm with you my feet don't touch the ground
              G                            Bm                      Am
No, i'm not a king but when i'm with you i feel like i'm wearing a crown
          G               Bm
For you i sing, for you i sing

For you i sing
