[Verse]
D F#m
You’re sleeping son, I know
Bm
But really, this can’t wait
F#m
I wanted to explain
Bm
Before it gets too late
G
For your mother and me

Love has finally died
Em
This is no happy home
F#7
But God knows how I tried
[Chorus]

Because you’re all I have,
Em
My boy

And if I stay

I stay because of you,

[Verse]
D F#m
I know it’s hard to understand
Bm
Why did we ever start
F#m
We’re more like strangers now
Bm
Each acting out a part
G
I’ve laughed, i’ve cried
F#m
I’ve lost every game
Em
Taken all I can take
F#7
But i’ll stay here just the same
[Chorus]

Sleep on, you haven’t heard
F#m
A word
Bm
Perhaps it’s just as well
F#m
Why spoil your little dreams
Bm
Why put you through a hell
G
Life is no fairy tale
F#m
And one day you will know
Em
But now you’re just a child
F#7
I’ll stay here and watch you grow
[Chorus]
Bm
Because you’re all I have,
Em
My boy

You are my life, my pride,

My joy

And if I stay

Elvis Presley's heartfelt ballad "My Boy" was included on the Good Times album in 1974. A father's love and the tough choice surrounding parental separation are the subjects of the song. The song's lyrics convey the intense feelings of a father who wants to stay with his son and make sure he's okay despite marital difficulties.
The song was originally written as the French song Parce que je t'aime, mon enfant by Jean-Louise Dahlmann and Claude François. Phil Coulter and Bill Martin adapted the English lyrics.
My Boy, which Elvis Presley recorded in 1973, became a hit single, peaking at No. 1 on the U.S. Adult Contemporary Chart and earning prominent places on international charts. His emotional performance makes this song one of the most moving moments in the later years of the King of Rock and Roll's career.,
