Basically D and G all the way to the bridge and then all over again. I strongly
recommend the version sung by Ghost.


           D 
You're top man on the scene
G                        D
You don't think life comes in between
    G              D         G D
But hey, she's just seventeen
G                      D 
She feels that she's a worldly girl
G                    D
But man you've been around the world
G                       D            G D G
She is just some worried daddy's girl
     Em
Even though there's nothing I can say
         D                  G
To cheat you and nature any way

             D
Let her down easy
G                 D    G
Her heart is on a dime 
             D
Let her down easy
    G                 D    G D G
And you'll grow up in time 


            D
In her strawberry eyes
    G               D
The way she sees you signifies
          G                    D           G D 
That she's susceptible to your velvet lies
G               D
But if you must lay her down
      G                        D
May a butterscotch glow be her dressing gown
                  G                   D          G D G
And please do not lead her on when you leave town 
     Em                
Even though there's nothing I can say
         D                  G
To cheat you and nature any way


             D
Let her down easy
G                 D    G
Her heart is on the line 
             D
Let her down easy
    G                 D    G D G
And you'll grow up in time 

        D
She's a woman now
       G           D
With a daughter to make her proud
       G              D            G D
In her crayon world of paper clouds
G           D 
She still remembers you
    G                  D
The first boy that she gave it to
        G                   D             G D G
And she laughs at how little then she knew


(Talk)
Her daughter's five and her grandfather adores her (of course)

             D
Let her down easy
G                 D    G
Her heart is on the line 
             D
Let her down easy
    G                 D    G D G D G D
And you'll grow up in time
