Five years old and i'm off to school,
Asus A Dsus2 D
With Grandma right behind.

I near the gate with my little bag,
Asus A Dsus2 D
and then i start to cry.

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

D A
Bout how to stand up proud and tall
G Asus A
and how to have a sensitive touch.
F#m G
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.
