To My Daughters

[Intro] Am  C  G  D
        Am  C  G  D

[Primeira Parte]

Am      C       G       D
In a quiet room, in the hush of night
Am      C       G       D
I held you close, bathed in soft moonlight
Am      C       G       D
From the moment you left that hospital
Am      C       G       D
I knew my heart belonged to you, my sweet child

[Segunda Parte]

Am      C       G       D
Tiny fingers, a fragile hand to hold
Am      C       G       D
In your eyes, a story yet untold
Am      C       G       D
Through every laugh, through every tear
Am      C       G       D
I've watched you grow, my love sincere

[Refrão]

G       C       G       D
Oh, my daughter, you're my shining star
G       C       G       D
From your first breath to where you are
Am      C       G       D
I'll cherish each moment, I'll hold you tight
G       C       G       D
From the white crib to the day you wear the white

[Terceira Parte]

Am      C       G       D
I'll be there when you take your first step
Am      C       G       D
And through every challenge, my love, I won't forget
Am      C       G       D
From the schoolyard to the starry night
Am      C       G       D
I'll be your guiding light, my dear, hold on tight

[Quarta Parte]

Am          C           G          D
Once I was your world, you were so small
Am          C           G          D
In my arms, I held you, my precious all
Am          C           G          D
I tucked you in, and I'd kiss your head
Am          C           G          D
As you drifted to dreamland, safe in your bed
Am          C            G         D
Then you grew a bit, and oh, how time did fly
Am          C            G         D
Now you leave your bed, and come to mine!
Am          C            G         D
With morning's first light, your love so true
Am          C            G         D
"Daddy, I love you, let's play, just us two."

[Pre-Ponte]

Am           C            G           D
In that moment, life showed its funny side
Am           C            G           D
As I was passed by, on this incredible ride

[Ponte]

Em      Am      G       D
And as time passes, and you find your way
Em      Am      G       D
Know my love for you will never fade away
Em      Am      G       D
Though I'll miss the moments that slip through my grasp
Em      Am      G       D
You'll forever be in mom and dad's heart, a love that will last

[Final]

G       C       G       D
So, my darling, as you walk down the aisle
G       C       G       D
In a gown of white, with a radiant smile
Am      C       G       D
Know that my love will light your way
G       C       G       D
Forever and always, my sweet child, you'll stay

[Refrão]

G       C       G       D
Oh, my daughter, you're my shining star
G       C       G       D
From your first breath to where you are
Am      C       G       D
I'll cherish each moment, I'll hold you tight
G       C       G       D
From the white crib to the day you wear the white
