Now he is just a little boy 
We build bridges with nothing more than tinker-toys
that we'll cross again
He stumbles through the living room doing his best 
To fill his daddy's shoes
Yes he wants to be just like me.


chorus
A                 D 
In his eyes I'm a hero
A                                 D
But he don't know how that scares me
    G       G/F#        Em A D
I'm so much less than a Superman
        C        C/B    A
But for him I'll try to be


Bridge:
          Bm                Bm/A
Cause one day he'll be gone so far from home
   G      A       Bm
To old to hold my hand
                G  G/F# Em
And I'll be his biggest fan
          G        G/F#    Em A   D
And he'll still be Daddy's little man


He climbs in bed with mister bear
Closes his eys to say his bed time prayer.
He says "Daddys great and God is good,
let us thank him for our food." and
God understood, he knows how children do
God was a daddy too.


chorus
A                 D 
In his eyes I'm a hero
A                                 D
But he don't know how that scares me
    G       G/F#        Em A D
I'm so much less than a Superman
        C        C/B    A
But for him I'll try to be


Bridge:
          Bm                Bm/A
Cause one day he'll be gone so far from home
   G      A       Bm
To old to hold my hand
                G  G/F# Em
And I'll be his biggest fan
          G        G/F#    Em A   D
And he'll still be Daddy's little man
