Chords with lyrics

I noticed that the chords to the only version sounded off when I played and a Google
search turned up a version that was missing chunks of the lyrics but contained the
correct-sounding chords.

Til I was a Daddy Too
By Tracy Lawrence

Standard Tuning - Capo 4

G+G   C majorC
Do you recall when I was six
   G+G              D MajorD
I got lost out in the woods and you worried yourself sick
        G+G  C majorC
What about the day I got in my first fight
G+G          D MajorD
Mama she got mad but you swelled up with pride
    E minorEm
I never knew how deep a father's love could run
       D MajorD
Until I had a son

(Chorus)
G+G               D/F#D/F#
From watching him learn how to crawl
E minorEm                 D/F#D/F#
To skinned up knees from skateboard falls
  C majorC                 D MajorD
To praying he'd get through football alive
   G+G              D/F#D/F#
From hearing his first words spoken
E minorEm                D/F#D/F#
The first time his heart got broken
  C majorC                    D MajorD
And knowing soon he'll spread his wings and fly
 Am7Am7                  D MajorD
I guess I didn't know what a daddy goes through
           G+G
Till I was a Daddy too

G+G         C majorC
Real love the kind that you can't understand
     G+G            D MajorD
Until you hold it in your arms and touch it with your hands
   G+G         C majorC
Pure joy the kind that you can only find
     G+G
When you live your life for them
  D MajorD
And leave yourself behind
E minorEm        C majorC       D MajorD
More and more I'm seeing life go by

Thru my Daddy's eyes

G+G               D/F#D/F#
From watching him learn how to crawl
E minorEm                 D/F#D/F#
To skinned up knees from skateboard falls
  C majorC                 D MajorD
To praying he'd get through football alive
   G+G              D/F#D/F#
From hearing his first words spoken
E minorEm                D/F#D/F#
The first time his heart got broken
  C majorC                    D MajorD
And knowing soon he'll spread his wings and fly
 Am7Am7                  D MajorD
I guess I didn't know what a daddy goes through
           G+G
Till I was a Daddy too

G+G             D/F#D/F#
The fast pace of time goes racing
 E minorEm            D/F#D/F#
From first grade to graduation
  C majorC                    FF  D MajorD
And knowing soon he'll spread his wings and fly
Am7Am7                   D MajorD
I guess I didn't know what a daddy goes through
          G+G
Till I was a daddy too
Am7Am7                   D MajorD
I guess I didn't know what a daddy goes through
          G+G
Till I was a daddy too
