My Little Girl

Am  F  G  Am  F  G


[Verse 1]

C                       C/B
Gotta hold on easy as I let you go.
Dm                                                          F
Gonna tell you how much I love you, though you think you already know.
C                                                                   C/B
I remember I thought you looked like an angel wrapped in pink so soft and warm.
Dm                                                 F
You've had me wrapped around your finger since the day you were born.


[Chorus]

C   Dm       Em            F
You're beautiful baby from the outside in.
            C                                      G
Chase your dreams but always know the road that'll lead you home again.
Am
Go on, take on this whole world.
F                                C   G  G#dim7     Am               F     G
But to me you know you'll always be,    my little girl.


[Verse 2]

C                                                           C/B
When you were in trouble that crooked little smile could melt my heart of stone.
Dm                                              F
Now look at you, I've turned around and you've almost grown.
C                                                   C/B
Sometimes you're asleep I whisper "I Love You!" in the moonlight at your door.
 Dm                               F
As I walk away, I hear you say, "Daddy Love You More!".


[Chorus]

C   Dm       Em            F
You're beautiful baby from the outside in.
            C                                      G
Chase your dreams but always know the road that'll lead you home again.
Am
Go on, take on this whole world.
F                                C   G  G#dim7     Am               F     G
But to me you know you'll always be,    my little girl.


[Bridge]

F                                 G
Someday, some boy will come and ask me for your hand.
     Em                                Am               Am/G
But I won't say "yes" to him unless I know, he's the half
                F                 Em      Dm          Em           F
that makes you whole, he has a poet's soul, and the heart of a man's man.
             G                   Am
I know he'll say that he's in love.
    Am/G        D/F#     F                    G
But between you and me. He won't be good enough!


[Chorus]

C   Dm       Em            F
You're beautiful baby from the outside in.
            C                                      G
Chase your dreams but always know the road that'll lead you home again.
Am
Go on, take on this whole world.
F                                C   G  G#dim7     Am               F     G
But to me you know you'll always be,    my little girl.
