Katy chords by Val Doonican
Verse 1
C
Oh, I have a little daughter
and my daughter's name is Kate
G
Dm
She's every bit mischievous
G
as a kitten on a skate
C
With the bandage on her forehead
G
and the bruises on her knees
C
G
You'd swear she'd
fought the buccaneers
C
on all the seven seas
For she's up the stairs
and down the stairs
and in the room and out
G
Dm
Like a miniature tornado
G
she can blow the house about
C
Take an angel and the devil
in the twinkling of an eye
That's my Katie, little lady,
G
Dm
C
G
and I love her
C
Now you might believe in miracles,
G
you might believe in saints
Dm
But you'd never believe my Katie
G
when she's playing with her paints
C
For there's red upon her forehead
and there's green upon her face
G
In her hair and in her eyes,
F
C
but on the paper not a trait
When she's in her room and quiet
G
and there comes a kind of calm
Dm
You develop the sensation
G
that you're sitting on a bomb
C
Take an angel and the devil
in the twinkling of an eye
G
That's my Katie, little lady,
C
G
and I love her
C
Now my Katie loves her game, you know,
and thirty times a week
Dm
I find myself dragooned
G
into a game of hide -and -seek
C
So I find myself in closets under beds
I quietly creep
G
And wait for thirty minutes
C
F
C
till my brain has gone to sleep
Yes, I wait for half an hour
G
and it feels like half a day
Dm
Then I find a friend has come to call
G
and Katie's gone out to play
C
Take an angel and the devil
and the twinklin' of an eye
G
C
That's my Katie, little lady, and I love her

Ab
Now I'm sure you've heard of fathers
Db
who would dote upon their girls
Ebm
Who get wrapped around their fingers
Ab
with the touch of an abacur
Db
Who are fooled by hugs and kisses
till there's nothin' they wouldn't do
Ab
Well, don't believe a word of it,
Gb
Db
it simply isn't true
Cos I'd only jump the moon for her,
I'd only swim the sea
Ab

Abm
For the hugs I get to give her
Ab
and the kiss she gives to me
Db
Take an angel and a devil
and a twinklin' of an eye
That's my Katy, little lady,
Ab
Db
and I love her
Take an angel and a devil
and a twinklin' of an eye
Gb
Db
That's my Katy, little lady,
Ab
Db
and I love her
