verse 1
F#m
the bottle took you from me
E
when i was a child
D
robbed me of the love i needed
C#m
robbed me of a smile
D
i prayed the same prayer every night
C#m
especially for you
Bm
after all
E
that’s what little girls do
verse 2
F#m
it didn’t happen in an instant
E
it happened in god’s time
D
you’ve finally gotten sober
C#m
and found some peace of mind
D
yeah you faced all your demons
C#m
and they finally set you free
Bm
with your back the bottle
E
you’re finally facing me
chorus
A
and dad i want to tell you that
F#m C#m E
i’m proud of you for never giving up on us
A F#m
even in your darkest hour i could still
C#m E
feel the power of your love for us
D
and i know that we’ll make up for lost time
C#m
as we walk through this world
Bm
i love you Daddy
E A
always , your baby girl
