Verse 1
(G major) I woke (C major) (D major) (G major) up crying late (E minor) at night
when (C major) I was (D major) very young (G major)
I (C major) had dreamed my father (G major)
had (A minor) passed away and gone (D major)
My (G major) world revolved around (E minor) him,
I couldn't (C major) lie there (D major) any more
(G major) So I (C major) made my way down the (G major) mirrored hall
and (A minor) tapped upon (D major) his door
(G major) And I said, (C major) Daddy, I'm (G major) so afraid,
how will (A minor) I go on with you
(G major) gone that way?
Don't wanna cry (C major) anymore,
so may (G major) I stay with you?
(A minor)
Verse 2
(D major)
And he said, (C major) that's my (D major) job, (G major)
that's (C major) (D major) what I do. (G major)
Everything (C major) I (D major) do is because (G major) of (C major) you,
to keep you safe (D major) with me. (E minor)
(C major) That's my job, (Dsus4) (D major) you see
(G major)

Verse 3
(G major) Later we barely got (E minor) along
Verse 4
This (C major) teenage boy (D major) and he (G major)
Verse 5
Most of the (C major) fights, it seems,
were over dif (G major) ferent dreams
Verse 6
We (A minor) each held for me (D major)
Verse 7
(G major) He wanted knowledge and (E minor) learning (C major) (D major)
Verse 8
I (G major)
I could make (C major) it out there
if I (G major) just had the fare I got (A minor) half,
will you (D major) loan me the (G major) rest?
And I said, (C major) Daddy, I'm so (G major) afraid
There's no (A minor) guarantee
in the (G major) plans I've made
And if (C major) I should fail,
who will (G major) pay my way back home? (A minor)
(D major) And he said, (C major) that's (D major) my job,
(G major) that's (C major) what (D major) I do, (G major)
everything (C major) I (D major) do is because (G major) of (C major) you,
to keep you safe (D major) with me, (E minor)
that's (C major) my job, (D major) you see. (G major)
Every (E minor) person carves (B minor) his spot
and (C major) fills the (D major) hole with light (G major)
And I (C major) pray someday I might (E major)
light as (A minor) bright as (D major) he
Woke (G major) up early one bright (E minor) fall day
to (C major) spread the (D major) tragic news (G major)
After all (C major) my travel
I (G major) settled down with (A minor) in a mile or two (D major)
I (G major) make my living with (E minor) words and rhymes
an (C major) d all this (D major) tragedy (G major)
should go (C major) into my head
and (G major) out instead as (A minor) bits of (D major) poetry. (G major)
But I say, (C major) Daddy, I'm so (G major) afraid.
How will (A minor) I go on with
you (G major) gone this way?
How can (C major) I come up with a (G major) song
to say I love (A minor) you? (D major)
(C major) That's my (D major) job. (G major)
(C major) That's what (D major) I do. (G major)
Everything (C major) I (D major) do is because (G major) of (C major) you.
To keep you safe (D major) with me. (E minor)
That's (C major) my job, (D major) you see. (G major)
Everything (C major) I (Dsus4) do (D major) is because (G major) of (C major) you
To keep you safe (D major) with me
(E minor) (C major) (D major) (G major)
