Intro:
E D B A

E
 They say, "Boys don't cry"
 But your daddy shed a lot of tears
 They say I should be a strong man
 But, baby, I'm still filled with fear
 Sometimes I don't know who I am
 Sometimes I question why I'm here
 I just wanna be a good dad
 Well, I'll be
 I had no idea


          E
 They say, "Girls shouldn't be tough"
 And Mom should raise the kids at home
 But Baby, I know that that isn't true
 'Cause your momma's the toughest person I know
 I wanna raise you to be like her
 And watch you show the world how to do it on your own
 I'm still trying to figure out who I am
 I don't wanna mess this up or do this wrong


E
 I'm gonna be there for your first breath
 I don't know if I'll be there for your first step
 I do promise you that I'll try to work less
 But the tool is rotted
 And I got this album
 Put in so many hours
 And I just want the outcome to be something
 That I can look back and I can be proud of


E
 Don't wanna be a dad that's living in Facetime
 But I got a world to sing to and you at the same time
 I won't spoil you
 You can trust that
 but your Sweet Sixteen you get a bus pass
 Had your heart broken?
 Been there done that
 I love you, and I can't give you enough of that


E
 Back to the community that raised you up
 Read Langston Hughes
 I suggest The Raisin in the Sun
 Listen to Sam Cooke, A Change Gon' Come
 You put the work in, don't worry about the parise, my love
 Don't try to change the world
 Find something that you love
 And do it every day
 Do that for the rest of your life
 And eventually the world will change


         E                 A
 I'll be patient, one more month
               E                 A
 You wrap your fingers around my thumb
E                      A
 Times are changing, I know

 Who am I?
                 E            A
 You'll find the person you become
                        E           A
 Yes, I'm still growing up, up, up, up
                    E           A
 I'll still growing up, up, up, up

 Still growing up


E
 I recommend that you read The Alchemist
 Listen to your teachers
 But cheat in calculus
 And tell the truth
 Regardless of the consequence
 And everyday, give your momma a compliment


           A
 Take your girl to the prom
               E
 But don't get too drunk hanging out the limo
      A
 Slow dance with your woman in your arms
           E
 Sneak her after, but boy, you better tiptoe
                 A
 Don't wake your mom up

 Do yoga, learn about karma
      B                     E
 Find God, but be the Dogma


     A
 The quickest way to happiness

 Learn to be selfless
 D
 Ask more questions

 Talk about yourself less
 A
 Study David Bowie, James Bowen, and Tupac
E
 Watch the sunset with best friends from a rooftop


A
 Wear a helmet

 Don't be stupid
E
 J-walk, but look before you do it
       A
 If it snows, go outside

 Build a jump, Get some help
       E
 Get a sled, thrash the hill

 With your friends, till it melts


       D
 Go to festivals

 Camp, fall in love, dance

 Only young once, my love, one

 This is your chance

 Take risks
E
 'Cause life moves so fast

 Only young once, my love, one

 This is your chance

                    E
 I'll still growing up
                    A
 I'll still growing up
