Lyrics

I may not be ev ’ry moth er’s dream for her lit tle girl,

and my face may not grace the mind of (G)ev ’ry one in the world.

But (Gmaj7)that’s al right as long as I can (Bm)have one wish I pray,

when (Bm7)peo ple look in side my life, I (Em7)want to hear them say:

She’s got her Fa ther’s eyes,

her (Fdim7)Fa ther’s eyes,

(Em7)eyes that find the good in things when (Gmaj7)good is not a round,

(Em7)eyes (F#m7)that (G)find (A)the (D)source (A)of (Bm)help when (E9sus)help just can’t be found,

(Gmaj9)eyes full of com pas sion,

(Gmaj9)see ing ev ’ry pain,

(Em7)know (F#m7)in’ (G)what (A)you’re (D)go (A)in’ (Bm)through and (E9sus)feel in’ it the same.

Just like my (D)Fa ther’s eyes,

my (C)Fa ther’s eyes,

my (B)Fa ther’s eyes,

just like my (D)Fa ther’s eyes.

On that day when we will pay for all the deeds we have done,

and good and bad, they’ll all be had to (G)see by ev er y one.

And (Gmaj7)when you’re called to stand and tell just (Bm)what you saw in me,

when (Bm7)more than an y thing I know, I (Em7)want your words to be:

She had her Fa ther’s eyes,

her (Fdim7)Fa ther’s eyes,

(Em7)eyes that found the good in things when (Gmaj7)good was not a round,

(Em7)eyes (F#m7)that (G)found (A)the (D)source (A)of (Bm)help when (E9sus)help would not be found,

(Gmaj9)eyes full of com pas sion,

(Gmaj9)see ing ev ’ry pain,

(Em7)know (F#m7)in’ (G)what (A)you’re (D)go (A)in’ (Bm)through and (E9sus)feel in’ it the same.

Just like my (D)Fa ther’s eyes,

my (C)Fa ther’s eyes,

my (B)Fa ther’s eyes,

just like my (D)Fa ther’s eyes.

(D)Fa ther’s eyes,

my (C)Fa ther’s eyes,

my (B)Fa ther’s eyes,

just like my (D)Fa ther’s eyes.
