A

[Verse 1]
---------------------
   A                      C/G
My child arrived just the other day
   D/A                      A
He came to the world in the usual way
                                   C/G
But there were planes to catch and bills to pay
D/A                           A
   He learned to walk while I was away

[Pre-Chorus (1)]
---------------------
           G               G/Gb         Em        G/D
And he was talkin' 'fore I knew it, and as he grew
         C          G/B     A
He'd say "I'm gonna be like you, Dad
    C              G/B     A
You know I'm gonna be like you"

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
        A                           G
And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon
C                          D
Little boy blue and the man in the moon
A
When you comin' home, Dad
  G                    C           G/B        A
I don't know when, but we'll get together then
    C                 G/B       A
You know we'll have a good time then

[Verse 2]
---------------------
A Asus2 G Em A   A                       C/G
              My son turned ten just the other day
         D/A                             A
He said, "Thanks for the ball, Dad, come on let's play
                                   C/G
Can you teach me to throw", I said "Not today
        D/A                  A
I got a lot to do", he said, "That's okay"

[Pre-Chorus (2)]
---------------------
      G            G/Gb          Em       G/D
And he walked away but his smile never dimmed
         C           G/B     A
And said, "I'm gonna be like him, yeah
    C              G/B     A
You know I'm gonna be like him"



[Verse 3]
---------------------
A Asus2 G Em A         A                          C/G
              Well, he came from college just the other day
   D/A                    A
So much like a man I just had to say
                                C/G
"Son, I'm proud of you, can you sit for a while"
   D/A                       A
He shook his head and he said with a smile

[Pre-Chorus (3)]
---------------------
          G            G/Gb       Em            G/D
"What I'd really like, Dad, is to borrow the car   keys
C        G/B          A
 See you later, can I have them please"

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
        A                           G
And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon
C                          D
Little boy blue and the man in the moon
A
When you comin' home, son
  G                    C           G/B        A
I don't know when, but we'll get together then
    C                 G/B       A
You know we'll have a good time then

[Verse 4]
---------------------
     A                      C
I've long since retired, my son's moved away
D                         A
 I called him up just the other day
             A                  C
I said, "I'd like to see you if you don't mind"
              D                      A
He said, "I'd love to, Dad, if I can find the time

[Pre-Chorus (4)]
---------------------
           G           G/Gb           Em               G/D
You see my new job's a hassle and the kid's got the flu
         C         G/B        A
But it's sure nice talking to you, Dad
          C         G/B        A
It's been sure nice talking to you"
         G           G/Gb                   G/D
And as I hung up the phone it occurred to me
     C        G/B       A
He'd grown up just like me
   C       G/B       A
My boy was just like me

[Chorus (3)]
---------------------
        A                           G
And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon
C                          D
Little boy blue and the man in the moon
A
When you comin' home son
  G                    C           G/B         A
I don't know when, but we'll get together then, Dad
      C            G/B       A
We're gonna have a good time then
