Capo: 2nd Fret
Strum: D,U,U,D
[Verse]
Am Dm
I know a girl
G7 C
She puts the color inside of my world
Am Dm
but she's just like a maze
G7 C
Where all of the walls are continually changed
Am Dm
And I've done all I can
G7 C
To stand on her steps with my heart in my hand
Am Dm
Now I'm starting to think
G7 C
Maybe it's got nothing to do with me
[Chorus]
Am Dm G7 C
Fathers, be good to your daughters
Am Dm G7 C
Daughters will love like you do
Am Dm G7 C
Girls become lovers who turn into mothers
Am Dm G7 C
So mothers, be good to your daughters too
[Verse]
Am Dm
Ooh, you see that skin?
G7 C
It's the same she's been standing in
Am Dm
Since the day she saw him walking away
G7
Now she's left
C
cleaning up the mess he made
[Chorus]
Am Dm G7 C
So fathers, be good to your daughters
Am Dm G7 C
Daughters will love like you do
Am Dm G7 C
Girls become lovers who turn into mothers
Am Dm G7 C
So mothers, be good to your daughters too
[Verse]
Am Dm
Boys, you can break
G7 C
You find out how much they can take
Am
Boys will be strong
Dm
And boys soldier on
G7
But boys would be gone without warmth from
G7 Am C
A wooooman's good, good heart
[Bridge]
Am
On behalf of every man
Dm
looking out for every girl
G7 C
You are the guide and the weight of her world
[Chorus]
Am Dm G7 C
So fathers, be good to your daughters
Am Dm G7 C
Daughters will love like you do
Am Dm G7 C
Girls become lovers who turn into mothers
Am Dm G7 C
So mothers be good to your daughters, too
Am Dm G7 C
So mothers be good to your daughters, too
Am Dm G7 C
So mothers be good to your daughters, too.
