FATHER AND DAUGHTER               PAUL SIMON

Capo 4th Fret

Strum a C

        F   C/E          Dm7          G   C
If you leap awake in the mirror of a bad dream

          D7/E          C          C/B            G         Am
And for a fraction of a second you can't remember where you are
               F  C/E     Dm7         G      C
Just open your window and follow your memory upstream
       D7/E           C                 C/B           G       Am
To the meadow in the mountain where we counted every falling star 
            F                C/E          Dm7       G     C
I believe a light that shines on you will shine on you forever
             D7/E         C                   C/B 
And though I can’t guarantee there’s nothing scary 
       G          Am
hiding under your bed
          F     C/E          Dm7           G        C
I'm gonna stand guard like a postcard of a Golden Retriever
          D7/E           C               C/B        G        Am
And never leave ‘til I leave you with a sweet dream in your bed 

Chorus:
C                     F
I'm gonna watch you shine
                  C
Gonna watch you grow
               F
Gonna paint a sign
                   C
So you'll always know
            F             C
As long as one and one is two ... woo-oooh
             F          C   C/D
There could never be a father
              Am                 G      Am
Who loved his daughter more than I love you 


C
Trust your intuition, it’s just like goin’ fishin’
    D7/E        C      C/B       G     Am  
You cast your line and hope you get a bite
                     F    C/E    Dm7  G
But you don’t need to waste your time
C
 Worryin’ about the market place, try to help the human race
D7/E        C      C/B     G        Am
 Struggling to survive its harshest night 

Chorus

F G Am (x3)
F G 


Chorus (ending last line with C instead of Am)

C Csus4 c Csus4
C Csus4 c Csus4
