Yeah
Em C DI know sometimes things may not always make sense
Emto you right now
Em CBut hey, what daddy always tell you?
D EmStraighten up little soldier
Em CStiffen up that upper lip
D EmWhat you crying about? You got me.
Verse:
Em CHailie, I know you miss your mom, and I know you miss your dad
D EmWhen I'm gone but I'm trying to give you the life
Emthat I never had
Em CI can see you're sad, even when you smile, even when you laugh
D EmI can see it in your eyes, deep inside you want to cry
Em'Cause you're scared, I ain't there?
CDaddy's with you in your prayers
D EmNo more crying, wipe them tears. Daddy's here, no more nightmares
Em CWe gon' pull together through it, we gon' Do it
DLainie Uncle's crazy, ain't he? Yeah,
Embut he loves you girl and you better know it
Em CWe're all we got in this world when it spins, when it swirls
D EmWhen it whirls, when it twirls. Two little beautiful girls
Em CLookin' puzzled, in a daze I know it's confusing you
D EmDaddy's always on the move, mamma's always on the news
Em CI try to keep you sheltered from it but somehow it seems
D EmThe harder that I try to Do that, the more it backfires on me
Em CAll the things growing up as daddy, that he had to see
D EmDaddy don't want you to see but you see just as much as he did
Em CWe did not plan it to be this way, your mother and me
DBut things have got so bad between us.
Em EmI don't see us ever being together ever again
C DLike we used to be when we was teenagers
EmBut then of course everything always happens for a reason
Em CI guess it was never meant to be
DBut it's just something we have no control over
Emand that's what destiny is
Em CBut no more worries, rest your head and Go to sleep
D EmMaybe one day we'll wake up and this will all just be a dream
Chorus:
Em CNow hush little baby, don't you cry
D EmEverything's gonna be alright
Em CStiffen that upper lip up, little lady, I told ya
D EmDaddy's here to hold ya through the night
Em CI know mommy's not here right now and we don't know why
D EmWe fear how we feel inside
Em CIt may seem a little crazy, pretty baby
D EmBut I promise mama's gon' be alright
Verse:
Em CHa! It's funny I remember back one year when daddy had no money
D EmMommy wrapped the Christmas presents up
Em CAnd stuck 'em under the tree and said some of 'em were from me
D Em'Cause daddy couldn't buy 'em
Em CI'll never forget that Christmas I sat up the whole night crying
D Em'Cause daddy felt like a bum, see daddy had a job
Em CBut his job was to keep the food on the table for you and mom
D EmAnd at the time every house that we lived in
Em CEither kept getting broken into and robbed
D EmOr shot up on the block and your mom was saving money
Emfor you in a jar
Em CTryna start a piggy bank for you so you could Go to college
D EmAlmost had a thousand dollars 'til someone broke in and stole it
Em CAnd I know it hurts so bad it broke your mamma's heart
D EmAnd it seemed like everything was just startin' to fall apart
Em CMom and dad was arguin' a lot so momma moved back
D EmOn the Chalmers in the flat one bedroom apartment
Em CAnd dad moved back to the other side of 8 Mile on Novara
D Em
And that's when daddy went to California with his CD,
Emand met Dr. Dre
Em CAnd flew you and momma out to see me
D EmBut daddy had to work, you and momma had to leave me
Em CThen you started seeing daddy on the T.V.
Cand momma didn't like it
D EmAnd you and Lainnie were too young to understand it
Em CPapa was a rollin' stone, momma developed a habit
D EmAnd it all happened too fast for either one of us to grab it
Em CI'm just sorry you were there and had to witness it first hand
D Em'Cause all I ever wanted to Do was just make you proud
Em CNow I'm sitting in this empty house, just reminiscing
D EmLookin' at your baby pictures, it just trips me out
Em CTo see how much you both have grown,
Cit's almost like you're sisters now
D EmWow, I guess you pretty much are and daddy's still here
Em CLainnie I'm talkin' to you too, daddy's still here
D EmI like the sound of that, yeah
Em CIt's got a ring to it don't it?
D EmShh, mama's only gone for the moment
Chorus:
Em CNow hush little baby, don't you cry
D EmEverything's gonna be alright
Em CStiffen that upper lip up, little lady, I told ya
D EmDaddy's here to hold ya through the night
Em CI know mommy's not here right now and we don't know why
D EmWe fear how we feel inside
Em CIt may seem a little crazy, pretty baby
D EmBut I promise mama's gon' be alright
Em CAnd if you ask me to Daddy's gonna buy you a mockingbird
D EmI'mma give you the world
Em CI'mma buy a diamond ring for you I'mma sing for you
D EmI'll Do anything for you to see you smile
Em CAnd if that mockingbird don't sing and that ring don't shine
D EmI'mma break that birdie's neck
Em CI'll Go back to the jeweler who sold it to ya
D EmAnd make him eat every carat don't fuck with dad (ha-ha)
