Intro:D - G - D - G
/w RIFF A(x2)
Dr[D]ivin' through town just my boy and me. With a "Happy Meal" in his booster seat
Kn[Bb]owin' that he couldn't have the t[C]oy 'til his nuggets were g[D]one.
A gr[D]een traffic light turned straight to red. I hit my brakes and mumbled under my breath.
His fr[Bb]ies went a flyin', and his or[C]ange drink covered his l[D]ap
Well, then my [G]4 year old said a [A]4 letter word
It st[G/B]arted with "[A]S" and [G]I was concerned
So [G]I said, "Son, now w[D/F#]here'd you learn to [Em]talk [D/F#]like t[G]hat?"[A]
Chorus:
He said, I've been wat[D]ching you, dad ain't that cool?
I'm your buc[A]karoo, I want to be like you.
G A RIFF B
And eat all my food and grow as tall as you are.
We got co[D]wboy boots and camo pants
Yeah, we're j[A]ust alike, hey, ain't we dad
I wa[G]nt to [A]do ev[G/B]eryth[A]ing you [G]do.[A]
So I've been watching y[D]ou.
Bridge 1:D - G
/w RIFF A
We g[D]ot back home and I went to the barn. I bowed my head and I prayed real hard
Said, "L[Bb]ord, please he[C]lp me help my stupid s[D]elf."
Then t[D]his side of bedtime later that night. Turnin' on my son's Scooby-doo nightlight.
He cra[Bb]wled out of bed and he g[C]ot down on his kn[D]ees.
He closed h[G]is little eyes, folded h[A]is little hands
S[G/B]poke to G[A]od like he was ta[G]lkin' to a friend.
And [G]I said, "Son, now wh[D/F#]ere'd you learn to p[Em]ray [D/F#]like t[G]hat?"[A]
Chorus:
He said, I've been wat[D]ching you, dad ain't that cool?
I'm your buc[A]karoo, I want to be like you.
G A RIFF B
And eat all my food and grow as tall as you are.
We live fi[D]xin' things and holdin' mama's hand
Yeah, we're j[A]ust alike, hey, ain't we dad
I wa[G]nt to [A]do ev[G/B]eryth[A]ing you [G]do.[A]
D RIFF C
So I've been watching you.
Bridge 2:
[C]With tears in my eyes I [G]wrapped him in a hug.
Said, "My lit[D]tle bear is growin' up."
C G Em G A RIFF D
And he said, "But when I'm big I'll still know what to do."
Chorus:
'cause I've been watch[D]ing you, dad ain't that cool?
I'm your buc[A]karoo, I want to be like you.
And eat a[G]ll my food and grow as tall as y[A]ou are.
By then I[D]'ll be strong as superman
We'll be j[A]ust alike, hey, won't we dad
When [G]I can [A]do ev[G/B]eryth[A]ing you [G]do.[A]
'cause I've been watchi[D]ng you.
