Verse 1:
G#G#
You're top man on scene
C#C# F minorFm
You don't think life comes in between
A#mA#m G#G# C#C# G#G#
But hey, she's just seventeen
C#C# G#G#
She feels that she's a worldly girl
C#C# F minorFm
But man you've been around the world
A#mA#m D#D# G#G# C#C# G#G#
She is just some worried Daddy's girl
Chorus:
D#D# A#mA#m
Even though there's nothing I can say
D#D#
To cheat you and nature any way
G#G#
Let her down easy
C#C# F minorFm A#mA#m
Her heart is on a dime
D#D# G#G#
Let her down easy
A#mA#m D#D# G#G#
And she'll grow up in time
Verse 2:
G#G#
In her strawberry eyes
C#C# F minorFm
The way she sees you signifies
A#mA#m D#D# G#G# C#C# G#G#
That she's susceptible to your velvet lies
C#C# G#G#
But if you must lay her down
C#C# F minorFm
May a butterscotch glow be her dressing gown
A#mA#m D#D# G#G# C#C# G#G#
And please do not lead her on when, on when, you leave town
Chorus:
D#D# A#mA#m
Even though there's nothing I can say
D#D#
To cheat you and nature any way
G#G#
Let her down easy

Her heart is on the line
D#D# G#G#
Let her down easy
A#mA#m D#D# G#G#
And you'll grow up in time
Verse 3:
G#G#
She's a woman now
C#C# F minorFm
With a daughter to make her proud
A#mA#m G#G# C#C# G#G#
In her crayon world of paper clouds
C#C# G#G#
She still remembers you
C#C# F minorFm
The first boy that she gave it to
A#mA#m D#D# G#G# C#C# G#G#
And she laughs at how little then she knew
Chorus:
D#D# A#mA#m
Even though there's nothing I can say
D#D#
To cheat you and nature any way
G#G#
Let her down easy
C#C# F minorFm A#mA#m
Her heart is on a dime
D#D# G#G#
Let her down easy
A#mA#m D#D# G#G#
And she'll grow up in time
Whoa in time
