Em C/G D/A Em/B
Yeah
Em C/G D/A Em/B
I know sometimes things may not always make sense to you right now
Em C/G
But hey, what daddy always tell you?
D/A Em/B Em C/G
Straighten up little soldier, stiffen up that upper lip
D/A Em/B
What you crying about? You got me
Em C/G
Hailie I know you miss your mom and I know you miss your dad
D/A Em/B
Well I'm gone but I'm trying to give you the life that I never had
Em C/G
I can see you're sad, even when you smile, even when you laugh
D/A Em/B
I can see it in your eyes, deep inside you want to cry
Em C/G
Cause you're scared, I ain't there? Daddy's with you in your prayers
D/A Em/B
No more crying, wipe them tears, daddy's here, no more nightmares
Em C/G
We gon' pull together through it, we gon' do it'
D/A Em/B
Laney uncles crazy, ain't he? Yeah but he loves you girl and you better know it
Em C/G
We're all we got in this world when it spins, when it swirls
D/A Em/B
When it whirls, when it twirls, two little beautiful girls
Em C/G
Lookin' puzzled, in a daze, I know it's confusing you
D/A Em/B
Daddy's always on the move, mama's always on the news
Em C/G
I try to keep you sheltered from it but somehow it seems
D/A Em/B
The harder that I try to do that, the more it backfires on me
Em C/G
All the things growing up his daddy that he had to see
D/A Em/B
Daddy don't want you to see but you see just as much as he did
Em C/G
We did not plan it to be this way, your mother and me
D/A Em/B Em
But things have gotten so bad between us I don't see us ever being together ever again
C/G D/A
Like we used to be when we were teenagers
Em/B Em C/G
But then of course everything always happens for a reason, I guess it was never meant to be
D/A Em/B
But it's just something we have no control over and that's what destiny is
Em C/G
But no more worries, rest your head and go to sleep
D/A Em/B
Maybe one day we'll wake up and this will all just be a dream
Em C/G
Now hush little baby, don't you cry
D/A Em/B
Everything's gonna be alright
Em C/G
Stiffen that upper lip up little lady, I told ya
D/A Em/B
Daddy's here to hold ya through the night
Em C/G
I know mommy's not here right now and we don't know why
D/A Em/B
We fear how we feel inside
Em C/G
It may seem a little crazy, pretty baby
D/A Em/B
But I promise momma's gon' be alright
It's funny
Em C/G
I remember back one year when daddy had no money
D/A Em/B
Mommy wrapped the Christmas presents up and stuck 'em under the tree
Em C/G
And said some of 'em were from me, cause daddy couldn't buy 'em
D/A Em/B
I'll never forget that Christmas I sat up the whole night crying
Em C/G
Cause daddy felt like a bum, see daddy had a job
D/A Em/B
But his job was to keep the food on the table for you and mom
Em C/G
And at the time every house that we lived in
D/A Em/B
Either kept getting broken into and robbed or shot up on the block
Em C/G
And your mom was saving money for you in a jar
D/A Em/B
Tryna start a piggy bank for you so you could go to college
Em C/G
Almost had a thousand dollars till someone broke in and stole it
D/A Em/B
And I know it hurt so bad it broke your momma's heart
Em C/G
And it seemed like everything was just startin' to fall apart
D/A Em/B
Mom and dad was arguin' a lot so momma moved back
Em C/G
On the Chalmers in the flat one bedroom apartment
D/A Em/B
And dad moved back to the other side of 8 Mile on Novara
Em C/G
And that's when daddy went to California with his CD
D/A Em/B
And met Dr. Dre and flew you and momma out to see me
Em C/G
But daddy had to work, you and momma had to leave me
D/A Em/B
Then you started seeing daddy on the T.V.
Em C/G
And momma didn't like it and you and Laney were to young to understand it
D/A Em/B
Papa was a rollin' stone, momma developed a habit
Em C/G
And it all happened too fast for either one of us to grab it
D/A Em/B
I'm just sorry you were there and had to witness it first hand
Em C/G
Cause all I ever wanted to do was just make you proud
D/A Em/B
Now I'm sitting in this empty house, just reminiscing
Em C/G
Lookin' at your baby pictures, it just trips me out
D/A Em/B
To see how much you both have grown, it's almost like you're sisters now
Em C/G D/A
Wow, guess you pretty much are and daddy's still here
Em/B
Laney I'm talkin' to you too, daddy's still here
Em C/G D/A
I like the sound of that, yeah, it's got a ring to it don't it?
Em/B
Shh, momma's only gone for the moment
Em C/G
Now hush little baby, don't you cry
D/A Em/B
Everything's gonna be alright
Em C/G
Stiffen that upper lip up little lady, I told ya
D/A Em/B
Daddy's here to hold ya through the night
Em C/G
I know mommy's not here right now and we don't know why
D/A Em/B
We fear how we feel inside
Em C/G
It may seem a little crazy, pretty baby
D/A Em/B
But I promise momma's gon' be alright
Em C/G
And if you ask me too Daddy's gonna buy you a mockingbird
D/A Em/B
I'mma give you the world
Em C/G
I'mma buy a diamond ring for you, I'mma sing for you
D/A Em/B
I'll do anything for you to see you smile
Em C/G
And if that mockingbird don't sing and that ring don't shine
D/A Em/B
I'mma break that birdies neck
Em C/G
I'll go back to the jeweler who sold it to ya
D/A Em/B
And make him eat every carat don't fuck with dad (ha ha)
