If it weren't for kids have you ever thought 
 
C                    Am 
There wouldn't be no Santa Claus 
 
   F                        C 
Or look what the stork just brought 
 
              C 
Thank God for kids

                       F 
And we'd all live in a quiet house 
C 
Without Big Bird or Mickey Mouse 
 
    F               Am 
And Kool Aid on the couch 
 
              C 
Thank God for kids

      F                    Am          C 
Thank God for kids there's magic for a while 
 
  F               Am            C 
A special kind of sunshine in a smile 
 
       F            C              Am 
Do you ever stop to think or wonder why  
  
    F             Am       C 
The nearest thing to heaven is a child

Daddy how does this thing fly 
 
C                   F 
And a hundred other where’s and whys 
 
  F                     C 
I really don't know but I try 
 
              C 
Thank God for kids 
 
- 
                    F 
When I look down in those trusting eyes 
 
C                 Am 
That look to me I realize 
 
F                           C 
There's a love that I can't buy 
 
              C 
Thank God for kids

When you get down on your knees tonight 
 
   C                      Am 
To thank the Lord for His guiding light 
 
    F         C        Am 
And pray they turn out right 
 
              C 
Thank God for kids
