[D][F#m][Bm][F#m][D][F#m][G][F#m]

[Verse 1]
He [D]said,
son, don't you grow [F#m]up too fast
[Bm]Make those days your livin[A]g last
'Cause [Bm]one day they'll
[F#m]be gone and past
You [Em]wish 'em back again

[Verse 2]
[Em]You only get to have this one
Life is precious and [Bm]when it's done
[Em]It's measured up in love and fun
So en[A]joy it while you can

[Verse 3]
And [D]oh, I've seen [G]it all
And [A]I'll be here to catch
you before [D]you fall
And oh I've done it all be[G]fore
You'll get [A]your chance the
same you can [D]be sure
[Em]Ask me how I know,
[A]'cause my daddy told me [D]so
[F#m]Mhmm

[Interlude 1]

[Verse 4]
He said [D]money doesn't make [F#m]the man
[Bm]Really only hard work [F#m]can
[Bm]Build something with
[F#m]your own hands
[Em]And see how good it feels

[Verse 5]
[Em]Don't be afraid to make mistakes
But learn from every one [Bm]you make
[Em]And take advice for goodness sake
Don't [A]reinvent the wheel

[Verse 6]
And [D]oh, I've seen it [G]all
And [A]I'll be here to catch
you before [D]you fall
And oh I've done it all be[G]fore
You'll [A]get your chance
the same [F#m]you can be [D]sure
[Em]Ask me how I know,
[A]'cause my daddy told me

[Verse 7]
[G]Women come and women go
[Gm]Don't rush to marry, take it slow
[D]Just let the love between you grow
[Bm]She'll be yo[D]ur best friend

[Verse 8]
[G]Find out what your passion is
[Gm]And follow it long as you live
[D]And teach it to your [G]little kids
And start a family trend
[A][F#m][A]

[Verse 9]
[D]Everything you [F#m]ever do
Don't [Bm]leave half done,
just [F#m]see it through
[Bm]'Cause sometimes people
[F#m]measure you
By the [Em]promises you keep

[Verse 10]
Give [Em]everyone an equal chance
We come from different cir[Bm]cumstance
[Em]And always try to lend a hand
When [A]you can help the weak

[Verse 11]
[D]And oh, I've seen i[G]t all
And [A]I'll be here to catch

the same [F#m]you can be [D]sure

[Verse 12]
And [Bm]oh, I've seen [G]it all
And [A]I'll be here to catch
you before [D]you fall
An[Bm]d oh I've done it all [G]be fore
[A]You'll get your chance
the same you can be sure
[D]

[Verse 13]
[Em]Ask me how I k[A]now
