[Verse 1]
G
Dear dad, you and me,
A D
We're a weird love story,
G A
You were my big hero,
A D
Yesterday and tomorrow,
G A
Love at first sight,
D
We'll be alright,
G A
We lived chasing dreams,
A D
It's in our genes,
G A
Most times you're my God,
D
But sometimes you are not,
G A
Don't understand your ways,
Bm A G
Though I'll just go the place.
[Chorus]
D F#m G
Daddy this song is for you,
Em G Bm A
In all I do, there's pieces of you,
D F#m G
And you can go your own way,
Bm A D
But please dad, don't wander too far away.
[Verse 2]
G A
Now I want to know,
D
Why can't you let go,
G A
Of shattered dreams you had,
A D
You will always be my dad,
G A
And as I grow older,
D
I still need your shoulders,
G A
Tell me are you proud,
A D
When I sing out loud,
G A
Dad, you run through my veins,
D
And understand my pains,
G A
Hold tight,
Bm
Kiss me goodnight.
[Outro]
D F#m G
Daddy this song is for you,
Em G Bm A
In all I do, there's pieces of you,
D F#m G
And you can go your own way,
Bm A D
But please dad, don't wander too far away.
[Outro]
Bm A D
But please dad, don't wander too far away,
Bm A D
Please dad, don't wander too far away.
