Song: Sweet Child O' Mine
By:   Guns N' Roses 
{note, original key is Db}

[intro:]   {guitar riff} 
           {guitar riff} {band kicks in} D  Cadd9 Gadd9          

[verse: 1]
D
He's got a smile that it seems to me 
Cadd9
Reminds me of childhood memories
         Gadd9                                    D   D
Where everything was as fresh as the bright blue sky 
D
Now and then when I see his face 
Cadd9
It takes me away to that special place 
          Gadd9                                     D   D
And if I stay too long I'd probably break down and cry 

[chorus:]
A        C                   D     D
Oh_____  oh, sweet child of mine 
A        C                 D      D
Oh, oh, oh, sweet love of mine 

| D | D | Cadd9 | Cadd9 | Gadd9 | Gadd9 | D | D |

[verse: 2]
D
He's got eyes of the bluest sky 
Cadd9
And if they thought of rain
     Gadd9                            D                D
I'd hate to look into those eyes and see an ounce of pain
D
Her hair reminds me of a warm safe place 
Cadd9
Where as a child I'd hide
     Gadd9                                  D             D
And pray for the thunder and the rain to quietly pass me by 

[chorus:]
A        C                 D     D
Oh___   oh sweet child of mine 
A        C              D      D
Ooooo oh, oh, oh sweet love of mine
