G                  Em        C
All the lights are out except for a little night light
G                     Em
We're cuddled up in this blanket
C                     D
On the bed here in your room
G              Em             C
It's so quiet out there, it feels like we're
              D
The only ones awake
          G                Em
In this world that could be so cold
    C   D    G
With no place to hide
 
 
                    C
When you were a little boy
                G
The nightmares blew away with your mum's lullaby
                   C
When you were a little boy
                       Em
The bruise didn't hurt so much You made your dad so proud
                     C                            G
When you were a little boy When you were a little boy
                   C                      D
Now you ain't a little boy You're on your own
 
 
                           C
But baby you don't have to be stronger
                          G
You're the strongest man I know
                       C
You don't have to try any harder
                    D        Em
'Cause you're trying enough you'll break
            D          C              D
I promise I will make you smile at the end of each
                   G          Em
And every day of your life so it's alright
         C      D           Em
You can cry, cry, cry like a little boy
           C            D                G
At least for now in this blanket, it's just you and me

         G          Em         C            D
Do you remember when you first took me out on that night?
             G             Em
And your hands were warm but shaking
        C               D
Finding love had made you weak
         G                   Em
And that song you played on the stereo
C              D
Almost made me cry
            G                 Em
A tune that had sat by me like an old friend
C      D     G
on my lonely days
 
 
                C
When I was a little girl
                 G
I never thought that I become so insecure
                C
When I was a little girl
            G
To trust and love someone had never been so hard
                 C                  G
When I was a little girl, when I was a little girl
                C              D
Now I ain't a little girl, sure have I grown
 
 
                           C
But baby with you I can be stronger
                      G
You have faith in what I see
                              C
You told me things can't get any harder
                     Em
'Cause now that we're together
                             C               D
You promise that you'll make me smile at the end of each
                   G          Em
And every day of my life so it's alright
      C     D            Em
I will cry, cry, cry like a little girl
           C             D              G
At least for now in this blanket it's just you and me
 
 
                         C
Baby, you don't have to be stronger
                      G
You're the strongest man I know
                        C
You don't have to try any harder
               D              G
'Cause you're trying enough you'll break
                C                    D
I promise I will make you smile at the end of each
                 Em
And every day of your life so it's alright
       C         D          Em
You can cry, cry, cry like a little boy
             C          D               G
At least for now in this blanket It's just you and me
D        G
