[Intro]
---------------------
D | C | D 

[Verse 1]
---------------------
C D  D                      F
   A child arrived just the other day
   G                        D
He came to the world in the usual way
          D                               F
But there were planes to catch, and bills to pay
   G                       D
He learned to walk while I was away
       C
And he was talkin' 'fore I knew it and as he grew
                           D
He said, I'm gonna be like you, Dad
    C                      D
You know I'm gonna be like you

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

[Verse 2]
---------------------
   D                       F
My son turned ten just the other day,
   G                               D
He said "Thanks for the ball, Dad, come on let's play
        D
Can you teach me to throw?", I said
F             G                    D
"Not today, I got a lot to do", he said, "That's okay"
       C
And he walked away but his smile never dimmed
                       D
He said, "I'm gonna be like him, yeah
C                          D
You know I'm gonna be like him"



[Verse 3]
---------------------
   D                          F
He came from college just the other day
   G                       D
So much like a man, I just had to say
         D                         F
"Son I'm proud of you, can you sit for a while?"
   G                             D
He shook his head, and said with a smile
          C
"What I'd really like, Dad, is to borrow the car keys
                    D
See ya later, can I have them please?"



[Verse 4]
---------------------
C D C D    D                      F
       Now I've retired, my son's moved away
  G                      D
I called him up just the other day
        D                        F
I said, "I'd like to see you, if you don't mind"
   G                        D
He said, "I'd love to, Dad, if I could find the time
C
My new job's a hassle and the kids got the flu
                         D             C                    D
But it's nice talkin' to you Dad, it's sure nice talkin' to you"
     C
As I hung up the phone it occurred to me
                         D
He'd grown up just like me
   C                  D
My boy was just like me

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