One of Guns n' Roses many great songs. It is a love song written for Axl Rose's then-wife Erin Everly.
It started during a jam session when as a joke Slash started playing, in his words, "a stupid little riff" which he'd used as an excercise, and making wierd faces at drummer Steve Adler. Izzy Stradlin then came in with some chords and Duff McKagan improvised a bass line. Axl was amazed and started singing from a love letter to Erin. In 1988, with the release of Appetite for Destruction, Sweet Child reached #1 on the billboard top 40, even passing Welcome to the Jungle. Slash originally didn't like the song, but after playing it live he began to enjoy it more. His riff is always listed as one of the greatest ever by music critics.
Unfortunately, Axl and Everly's relationship did worse than the song, ending in divorce and spousal abuse lawsuits. But the song is amazing anyway.

She's got a smile that it seems to me
Reminds me of childhood memories
Where everything
Was as fresh as the bright blue sky
Now and then when I see her face
She takes me away to that special place
And if I'd stare too long
I'd probably break down and cry
Woah, oh, oh, Sweet child o' mine
Whoah, oh, oh, oh, Sweet love of mine
She's got eyes of the bluest skies
As if they thought of rain
I hate to look into those eyes
And see an ounce of pain
Her hair reminds me of a warm safe place
Where as a child I'd hide
And pray for the thunder
And the rain
To quietly pass me by
Woah, oh, oh, Sweet child o' mine
Woah, oh, oh, oh, Sweet love of mine
Woah, oh, oh, yeah
Whoah, oh, oh oh, Sweet child o' mine
Whoah oh, oh, oh, sweet love of mine
Whoah, oh, oh oh, Sweet child o' mine, ooh yeah,
Oh, sweet love of mine
Where do we go,
Where do we go now,

whoah, where do we go now,
Sweet child,
Sweet child o' mine
Reminds me of childhood memories
Where everything
Was as fresh as the bright blue sky
Now and then when I see her face
She takes me away to that special place
And if I'd stare too long
I'd probably break down and cry
Woah, oh, oh, Sweet child o' mine
Whoah, oh, oh, oh, Sweet love of mine
She's got eyes of the bluest skies
