[Verse]
        D         A
I hope Heaven is full
    G             A
of things to explore
     D            A           G    A
And you can stay busy up there
   D             A
I know it hits hard that
     G          A
you left me so soon
             D        G           D
But you’re needed by Jesus elsewhere
   D           A
I hope there’s TV and
     G            A
you don’t have to fight
      D          A            G    A
Over who has to share every bath
      D            A
Over seats in the car
      G        A
and slices of cake
     D              G     D
And who gets the “bigger half”

[Chorus]
 A           Em
Special one, little one

I can say this now you’re gone

I can only love you through a song

[Verse]
            D             A
There will still be food fights
    G         A
if you’re in control
         D
That was always
      A          G    A
your specialist move
      D             A
You’d somehow come out not
   G              A
a speck on your clothes
    D           G           D
And we were all covered in food
         D         A
No more “I saw it first”
          G            A
“Get your grubby hands off”
         D
No more “don’t touch
    A           G      A
my food or I’ll scream
        D          A
No more rolling my eyes
           G             A
when we’re caught in the act
    D           G            D
And you pin the blame all on me

 A           Em
Special one, little one
G               A
I can say this now you’re gone
D               G     Em
To my favourite enemy, so long
D                      G       D
I can only love you through a song

[final chorus - slower]
         A            Em
You’re a Special one, little one
G                  A
I can’t take this now you’re gone
D            G      Em
To my little sister, please be strong

I poured all my love into a song
