verse i
E G
a child arrived just the other day

G E
“i’m gonna be like you , dad ,
G E
you know i’m gonna be like you”
chorus
E G
the cats in the cradle and the silver spoon

E G
when you comin’ home son , i don’t know when
D E
we’ll get together then ,
G E
you know we’ll have a good time then
verse ii
E G

A E
he said “thanks for the ball dad , come on , let’s play
E G
could you teach me to throw?” , i said “not today
A E
i got a lot to do” , he said “that’s ok”
D G
he walked away with a smile on his face , he said
E
“i’m gonna be like him , yeah ,
G E
you know i’m gonna be like him”
