Title: Beautiful Daughter
[G]There [G]we [G/F#]go, running[Em] before we can walk again
[Em]Can you[D] [C]imagine the hours I keep
[A7]Learning[D] to [A7]sleep again, see her face again
[G]Blast the[G] world, [G/F#]fruits of the[Em] morning are weak and grey
[Em]Carry [D]the [C]weight of the heart in a storm
[A7]Suffer the dawn[D] today,[G] today
[Em]Your beautiful [Em]daughter made me [A7]younger [C][C/B]yesterday
[Em][Em]Beautiful daughter, [A]now the [D/B]darkness hides the tears that soak
[A]The [C7]pillow where she lay
[G]Wide [G]awake,[G/F#] lying in[Em] wait for the moon to break
[Em]Drinking [D]the [C]lake of the dreams that we share
[A7]Wanting [D]you [G]there today, today
[Em]Your beautiful [Em]daughter made me [A7]younger [C][C/B]yesterday

[Em]Drinking [D]the [C]lake of the dreams that we share
[A7]Wanting [D]you [G]there today, today

[G]Pools [G/F#]in her eyes [Em]that are bright and deep
[Em]Can you[D] [C]imagine the hours I keep
[A7]Learning[D] to [G]sleep again, Again
[Em]Your beautiful [Em]daughter made me [A7]younger [C][C/B]yesterday
[Em][Em]Beautiful daughter, [A]now the [D/B]darkness hides the tears that soak
