Intro: G-D
G
Looking out my window
                                         
See you playing in the leaves
          Em
It's amazing how a little girl
Means all the world to me
            D
When I tell you that I love you
               Am/ Am7     D            G
I love you more than words can say
G
Smile, say cheese pretty-please
I wanna take your picture
Em
How'd you ever get so big
I gotta take your picture
  D                                                  Am/ Am7     D            G                                             
Hold on to the memory before the whole thing slips away
Chorus:
    *D              G
I wish I could save these moments
And put 'em in a jar
                       Em
I wish I could stop the world from turning
                   D
Keep things just the way they are
                        Em
I wish I could shelter you from everything
       Bm                            Am
Not pure and sweet and good
           C/ Am7           *D
I know I can't, I know I can't
                    G
But I wish I could
                G
When you kiss me for no reason
It goes straight to my heart
             Em
When I feel your arms around me
I almost fall apart
     D
It's time for bed you whisper
    Am          D             G
Daddy, we forgot to pray
Repeat Choro.
Refrain:
              Bm
And when I watch you sleeping
             Em
All my worries fade away
            C       Am / Am7         Em              D
A little bit of heaven glows on your angelic face
    *D              G
I wish I could save these moments
And put 'em in a jar
                       Em
I wish I could stop the world from turning
                   D
Keep things just the way they are
                        Em
I wish I could shelter you from everything
      Bm                           C
Not pure and sweet and good
           Am/ Am7           Bm
I know I can't, I know I can't
          C          
I know I can't, 
    D                G
But I wish I could
