[Verse 1]
Bm7 Em7
I - know a girl
A7 D
She puts the color inside of my world
Bm7 Em7
But she's just like a maze
A7 D
Where all of the walls all continually change
Bm7 Em7
And I've done all I can
A7 D
To stand on her steps with my heart in my hand
Bm7 Em7
Now I'm starting to see
A7 D
Maybe It's got nothing to do with me
[Chorus]

Girls become lovers who turn into mothers
Bm7 E7 A7 D
So mothers be good to your daughters too
[Verse 2]
Bm7 Em7
Oh you see that skin
A7 D
It's the same she's been standing in
Bm7 Em7
Since the day she saw him walking away
A7 D
Now she's left cleaning up the mess he made
[Chorus]
Bm7 E7 A7 D
Fathers be good to your daughters

Daughters will love like you do

Girls become lovers who turn into mothers

So mothers be good to your daughters too

Boys soldier on

But boys would be gone
without warmth from
A7
A woman's good good heart
