[E]I put our little baby to bed last night
She was sleeping real good and I tucked her in tight
I [F#m]looked at her once then I looked at her [B]twice
Her [F#m]little legs are longer and I'm runnin' out of [B]time
The [F#m]boys are gonna chase her I'll be standing in [B]line
Our baby's [E]gone
[E]Up at 7:30 she comes into our room
She wants to make her breakfast but she can't find her spoon
[F#m]We wake up and try to shake the sandman out of our [B]eyes
She's [F#m]already got her clothes on much to our surpris[B]e
[F#m]She did it all herself and we realize
[B]Our baby's [E]gone
[A]Three years [G#m]old and she's [F#m]queen of the world
[B]Humpty Dumpty's falling [E]down
[A]Little Jack [G#m]Horner's on the [F#m]boredom [B]border
[D]Oh, mama what do we do [A]now[E]
Instrumental (Zither and Pedal Steel Guitar)
[E]Playing outside her little face to the wind
The hours go by her strength is wearin' thin
She [F#m]doesn't call for daddy she's a big girl [B]now
Her [F#m]mama looks in wonder and she don't know [B]how
How our [F#m]baby girl escaped us no more cuddlin' [B]now
[B]Our baby's [E]gone
[A]Three years [G#m]old and she's [F#m]queen of the world
[B]Humpty Dumpty's falling [E]down
[A]Little Jack [G#m]Horner's on the [F#m]boredom [B]border
[D]Oh, mama what do we do [A]now
Our baby's [E]gone
[E]Our baby's gone
