Intro: F# minorF#m - E MajorE - D MajorD - E MajorE
Verse 1
F# minorF#m
The bottle took you from me
E MajorE
When I was a child
D MajorD
Robbed me of the love I needed
C# minorC#m
Robbed me of a smile
D MajorD
I prayed the same prayer every night
C# minorC#m
Especially for you
B minorBm
After all
E MajorE
That's what little girls do
Verse 2
F# minorF#m
It didn't happen in an instant
E MajorE
It happened in God's time
D MajorD
You've finally gotten sober
C# minorC#m
And found some peace of mind
D MajorD
Yeah you faced all your demons
C# minorC#m
And they finally set you free
B minorBm
With your back the bottle
E MajorE
You're finally facing me
Chorus

And Dad I want to tell you that
F# minorF#m C# minorC#m E MajorE
I'm proud of you for never giving up on us
A augmentedA F# minorF#m
Even in your darkest hour I could still
C# minorC#m E MajorE
Feel the power of your love for us

C# minorC#m
As we walk through this world
B minorBm
I love you Daddy
E MajorE A augmentedA
Always, your baby girl
