Wonder Child Guitar Chords And Lyrics By Mary Black

Written By Jimmy McCarthy Recorded By Mary Black. Jimmy McCarthy also wrote Katie Song which 
was another big hit for Mary.

This[C] child he means the world to me, There is no more en[F]chanted
A [Dm]child can take this place of ruin, And magi[C]cally [F]enhance[G] it.
 
I [C]see him in a golden room, With the book of life [F]before him
Strange instru[Dm]ments upon his charts, And [C]the [F]crystal glow [G]inside him.
 
He's your[C] Wonder Child, And my [F]dreams come[G] true
You've searched[C] all your[F] life, I see him now[C] flying over the[G] uni[C]verse.
 
This[C] child will build a violin, One will follow the [F]traveller's love
An[Dm]other will the bow apply, To[C] reach the [F]one a[G]bove.
 
I [C]see her in a golden room, With the moon and stars [F]above her
Her [Dm]simple smile is Heaven's gate, With the[C] Queen of all [F]beside[G] her.
 
She's your Wonder Child, And my dreams come true
You've searched all your life, I see her now flying over the universe.
 
Your Wonder Child, And my dreams come true
You've searched all your life, I see them now flying over the universe
