This one I basically wrote kind of about myself.
I was the third [C#] of three girls
and I know [D#] that my dad was praying for a boy.
He did not get his wish but I think
he's pretty proud.
I think I think he's okay with [A] what he ended up with.
Nothing
you can do about it now but I like this song.
