i know a girl
                   Asus                            Dmaj7
she puts the color inside of my world
Bm                      Em7

                           Asus                            Dmaj7
where all of the walls all continually change

to stand on the steps with my heart in my hands
 Bm                      Em7
Now i started to see
                         Asus                            Dmaj7
maybe its got nothing to do with me. 

    Bm          Em7                   Asus    Dmaj7
so fathers be good to your daughters,
    Bm          Em7                   Asus    Dmaj7

 Bm          Em7                   Asus    Dmaj7
girls become lovers who turn into mothers
 Bm          Em7                   Asus    Dmaj7
so mothers be good to your daughters too.
