Daughters - John Mayer

This piece has a lot of chords that are probably different from what you are used to. Take your time to get to know each chord so that you can move smoothly through the piece. Try using your thumb for the bass on the third chord of the Verse and Chorus. All the zeros above the chords are not necessary. So if you find it difficult to make those strings sound, just skip them.

Lyrics:

I know a girl She puts the color inside of my world 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 hands Now I'm starting to see Maybe it's got nothing to do with me

Fathers be good to your daughters Daughters will love like you do Girls become lovers who turn into mothers So mothers be good to your daughters too...

Oh, 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 fathers be good to your daughters Daughters will love like you do Girls become lovers who turn into mothers So mothers be good to your daughters too

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...

On behalf of every man Looking out for every girl You are the guide and the weight of her world

So fathers be good to your daughters Daughters will love like you do Girls become lovers who turn into mothers So mothers be good to your daughters, too So mothers be good to your daughters, too So mothers be good to your daughters, too
