[Verse 1]
A               E                  D           F#m
 He ain't got my smile, that don't bother me a bit
        A         E              D      E      A
He's got somebody else's eyes I'm seeing myself in
            E                       D                   F#m
I'm holding on to every moment, God knows I've missed a few
    A           E              D        E     A
The day we met I knew I had some catching up to do
 
 
[Chorus]
F#m           E                      A
   He ain't my blood, ain't got my name
          D                     F#m
But if he did, I'd feel the same
         E                     A
I wasn't there for his first steps
            D                   F#m
But I ain't missed a ball game yet
    E                            A
And that ain't ever gonna change
D
I could never walk away
F#m              E                    A
   Yeah, he's my son and that's my choice
           D                 F#m     E      A   D
He ain't my blood but he's my,  he's my boy
 
 
[Verse 2]
A          E                       D                 F#m
 It hit me like a train, the first time he called me dad
     A                 E                    D         E       A
In a three stick figure crayon picture with all of us holding hands
         E                      D                 F#m
His mama said, "I understand if it's too soon for this"
  A                       E                             D        E      A
I didn't let her finish, I took it to the kitchen and I stuck it on the fridge, yeah
 
 
[Chorus]
F#m           E                      A
   He ain't my blood, ain't got my name
          D                   F#m
But if he did, I'd feel the same
         E                     A
I wasn't there for his first steps
            D                   F#m
But I ain't missed a ball game yet
    E                            A
And that ain't ever gonna change
D
I could never walk away
F#m              E                    A
   Yeah, he's my son and that's my choice
           D                 F#m     E      A   D
He ain't my blood but he's my,  he's my boy
 
[Bridge]
F#m
   He's Saturday morning cartoons
E
 He's "Hey, can I sleep in your room?"
A
 He's bigger than the plans I had
     D
He's making me a better man
 
 
[Chorus]
F#m           E                      A
   He ain't my blood, ain't got my name
          D                   F#m
But if he did, I'd feel the same
         E                     A
I wasn't there for his first steps
            D                   F#m
But I ain't missed a ball game yet
    E                            A
And that ain't ever gonna change
D
I could never walk away
F#m              E                    A
   Yeah, he's my son and that's my choice
           D                 F#m     E      A   D
He ain't my blood but he's my,  he's my boy
             F#m     E      A   D
Yeah, he's my,  he's my boy
              He ain't got my smile, that don't bother me a bit
He's got somebody else's eyes I'm seeing myself in
I'm holding on to every moment, God knows I've missed a few
The day we met I knew I had some catching up to do

He ain't my blood, ain't got my name
But if he did, I'd feel the same
I wasn't there for his first steps
But I ain't missed a ball game yet
And that ain't ever gonna change
I could never walk away
Yeah, he's my son and that's my choice
He ain't my blood but he's my, he's my boy

It hit me like a train, the first time he called me dad
In a three stick figure crayon picture with all of us holding hands
His mama said, "I understand if it's too soon for this"
I didn't let her finish, I took it to the kitchen and I stuck it on the fridge, yeah

He ain't my blood, ain't got my name
But if he did, I'd feel the same
I wasn't there for his first steps
But I ain't missed a ball game yet
And that ain't ever gonna change
I could never walk away
Yeah, he's my son and that's my choice
He ain't my blood but he's my, he's my boy

But I ain't missed a ball game yet
And that ain't ever gonna change

Yeah, he's my son and that's my choice
He ain't my blood but he's my, he's my boy
Yeah, he's my, he's my boy
