My Fathers Daughter

INtro: C F C G Am F She stepped off of the boat to see flowers in his hand C G The man she would marry was as hard as the mountains Am F She had his children in a log cabin C G Soon I'd be another star in this family's constellation Am In the land of the midnight sun G Searching for gold C I am my father's daughter G He has his mother's eyes Am F I am the product of their sacrifice C G I am the accumulation of the dreams of generations Am F C G And their stories live in me like holy water C I am my father's daughter Am F My father raised me in an old log cabin C G And he sang for me the songs his mother sang to him Am F In honkey-tonks, and empty bars, just me and him C And that old guitar G He passed on a legacy wrapped up in a melody Am and I carry on G Searching for gold C I am my father's daughter G I have his eyes Am F I am the product of his sacrifice C G I am the accumulation of the dreams of generations Am F C G And their stories live in me like holy water C I am my father's daughter Am F And every time I step on stage C And the music finds me Am G I don't need gold to remind me C I am my father's daughter G I have my Grandma's eyes Am F I am the product of such sacrifice C G I am the accumulation of the dreams of generations Am F C G And their stories live in me like holy water Am F I am my father's daughter Oh-Oh-OOOH C I am my father's daughter
