(BURR)
A                    C#m/G#
Dear Theodosia, what to say to you?
F#m7
You have my eyes
Dmaj7
You have your mother's name
E         A                      C#m/G#
When you came into the world you cried
                F#m
And it broke my heart

Dmaj7  E

A                  C#m/G#
I'm dedicating every day to you
F#m                Dmaj7
Domestic life was never quite my style
E         A
When you smile
C#m/G#                    F#m7
You knock me out, I fall apart
                      Dmaj7   
And I thought I was so smart

E          A                        C#m/G#
You will come of age with our young nation
                F#m7
We'll bleed and fight for you
               Dmaj7        
We'll make it right for you
E      A                  C#m/G#
If we lay a strong enough foundation
              F#m7
We'll pass it on to you
                Dmaj7
We'll give the world to you
                   E    A
And you'll blow us all away
   C#m/G#    F#m   Dmaj7
Someday, someday
                      E   A
Yeah, you'll blow us all away
   C#m/G#    F#m   Dmaj7 E
Someday, someday

(HAMILTON)
A   C#m/G#                      F#m7
Oh, Phillip when you smile I am undone
Esus4   
My son
     E     A
Look at my son
C#m/G#                            F#m7
Pride is not the word I'm looking for
                 Esus4          E
There is so much more inside me now
A   C#m/G#                         F#m7
Oh, Phillip you outshine the morning sun
  Esus4  E
My son
         A      C#m/G#
When you smile
       F#m
I fall apart
                      Esus4  E
And I thought I was so smart

(HAMILTON & BURR)
D                E  D                     E   D
My father wasn't around (My father wasn't around)
                     E  D           E  D
I swear that I'll be around for you
                 E  D                           E  D
I'll do whatever it takes (I'll make a million mistakes)
                         E   D        Esus4
I'll make the world safe and sound for you

         A                        C#m/G#
You'll come of age with our young nation
                F#m7
We'll bleed and fight for you

We'll make it right for you
E      A                  C#m/G#
If we lay a strong enough foundation
              F#m7
We'll pass it on to you
                Dmaj7
We'll give the world to you
            E           A
And you'll blow us all away
   C#m/G#    F#m   Dmaj7
Someday, someday

Yeah, you'll blow us all away
   C#m/G#    F#m   Dmaj7 
Someday, someday
