 D         D/F#         D/G 
Five years old and i'm off to school, 
 Asus         A         Dsus2 D 
With Grandma right behind. 
 D            D/F#           D/G 
I near the gate with my little bag, 
 Asus      A         Dsus2 D 
and then i start to cry. 
           G                         D/F#                      
she said "i can't teach you what they learn in school, 
 Em     A        Dsus2 D 
so go ahead and learn, 
   G                        D/F# 
I'll see you at home, when the bell rings son" 
           Em        A         Dsus2 D 
you know, i still dream about her. 
 
 
My mother worked on the railroads, 
she did for 16 years. 
that dining car was a testing ground 
for plans and dreams and tears. 
She said "i carried you in my body, 
and i carried you in my arms. 
and you rest assured for the rest of you life, 
I'll carry you in my heart 
 
 
Chorus 
      F#m          G 
These ladies in my life. 
 F#m              G 
Have taught me so much 
 D                    A 
Bout how to stand up proud and tall 
           G                 Asus A 
and how to have a sensitive touch. 
F#m           G 
From here on after,  
 F#m                   G 
Through happiness and strife 
 D         D/F#     D/G 
I'll have so much owing to  
    Asus     A     D 
the Ladies in my life. 
 
 
I'm walking through my front door 
and oh what do i see? 
is a beautiful wife with a baby girl 
Sitting on her knee. 
Those little blue eyes light up like stars 
when i walk into the room, 
We'll tuck you in bed, my little Girl, 
so you can dream about the moon.
