[Verse 1]
The [Am]re
proach in your daughter's most [F]beautiful face
[G]Made me [Am]wonder just how she could [F]know
[G]Of that [Am]something that happened

[Verse 2]
mother, I can see, lives within [F]her still
[G]Cause she looked at me
with her [F]eyes[G]
Though I had only just [F]met her right then

Or did I even figure at [F]all?[G]
All of this happened before [F]she was [G]born

Of a [Am]number who darkened that [F]door

In [E]ways that are yet as of now unfore[Em]seen
