Bm7add4-->-->/-->-->Bm7add4-->-->/-->
I know a girl she puts the color inside of my world.
But she's just like a maze, where all of the walls all continually change.
And I've done all I can to stand on her steps with my heart in my hand.
Now I'm starting to see, maybe its got nothing to do with me.
Fathers be good to your daugh-ters.
Daughters will love like you do.
Girls become lovers, who turn into mothers
So, mothers be good to your daughters too.
Bm-->Em7-->Em7/A-->D-->Em7-->D/F
Oooh, you see that skin?
It's the same she's been standing in...
since the day, she saw him walking away, now she's left...
cleaning up the mess he made.
So
(Chorus)
Boys you can break, you'll find out how much they can take.
Boys will be strong, and boys soldier on but boys would be gone without
warmth from a woman's good, good heart.
Bm7add4-->-->/-->-->Bm7add4-->-->/-->
On behalf of every man, looking out for every girl
you are the god and the weight of her world.
So...(chorus)
