_ [E] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
When I was your age, _ _ _ [A] I never dreamed that I'd have kids.
[C#m]
Now [E] at my age, _ _ _ [B] I sure am glad I did.
When [E] you came along, _ _ I was [A] halfway through 24. _ _
[E] And to your mom and me, a [B] precious Cajun [E] angel born. _
_ _ _ _ Ten fingers and ten toes, [A] but I didn't _ realize
_ [E] _ Until they put you in my [B] arms, I looked into your eyes.
[E] I'd spend the rest of my life, [A] I promise without a doubt
_ [E] Making sure you lived yours with a smile, [B] and you never did without.
_ [E] _ _ _ _
I wasn't quite sure how I'd pull [F#] that off, [A] but the one thing that I knew _
_ [B] I was [A] so [B] proud _ [E] of you. _ _ _ _
_ When we moved to Texas, _
_ [A] you were almost five.
[E] You stayed an image of your daddy, _ [B] and that filled my heart with pride. _
[E] And every time that I'd come home [A] from working out on the road
[E] You'd say how much we missed each other, [B] I'd see how much you'd grown. _
_ [E] How much I was missing out [A] on filled my heart with gloom.
[E] I remember _ a promise I made [B] in that hospital [E] _ room.
_ _ _ _ Then the time finally come, _ [A] it was your first day of school.
_ [E] I wouldn't miss that for the world, [B] I knew it'd be too cool.
_ [E] So your mom and I walked you to the class, [A] you already knew what to do.
_ _ [B] I [A] was so [B] proud [E] of you.
_ _ _ And [A] there's nothing in [B] a daddy's life that [E] holds a candle [A] to all the pride
That I feel every day and night, [B] to have a daughter like you.
[A] As you go through life, [B] you'll live and learn, [E] you'll get treated right and [A] you might get burned. _ _
And along the way you'll pick up a lesson [B] or two. _ _ _
_ [A] Remember baby, [B] I'm so [A] _
[E] proud of you. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
Now you're eighteen, _ _ _ a [A] grown woman from a girl.
[E] With the right to choose her own path [B] as you wander through this world.
[E] And I know, _ _ _ _
_ [A] deep inside my heart, [E] that you'll make the right decisions to [B] not make your life too hard.
[E] And as I sit here reflecting, _
_ [A] thinking it'd be nice.
[E] When you find you're unsure of yourself, you come [B] to daddy for [E] _ advice.
_ _ _ _ Well the day has finally come, there's [A] no time to hesitate.
_ [C#m] _ [E] You've done your _ job in high school, [B] and today you graduate.
_ _ [E] Then it's off to work in college, _ _ [A] doing what you need to do.
_ _ [B] I am [A] so [B] proud _ [E] of you.
_ _ _ _ [A] And there's nothing in [B] a daddy's life that [E] holds a candle [A] to all the pride
That I feel every day and night [B] to have a daughter like you.
[A] And as you go through life, [B] you'll live and [A] learn, [E] you'll get treated right and [A] you might get burned. _ _
And along the way you'll pick up [B] a lesson or two. _ _ _
_ [A] Remember baby, [B] I'm so [A]
proud [E] of _ you. _ _ _
[A] And along the way you'll pick up a lesson [B] or two. _ _ _
[A] And always remember, [B] I'm [A] so [E] proud of you. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
When I was your age, _ _ I [A] never dreamed that I'd have kids.
Now [E] at my _ _ _ age, [B] I sure am glad [E] I did. _
_ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _
_ _ You go [A] get them [E] girl. _ _
