CAPO: 1st FRET

INTRO:
C           Em
He isn't much in the eyes of the world
    F       G
He'll never make history.

But he is the world to me.

Oh, he's always there, my dad.

 When I was small I felt ten feet tall.
   Em    Bm7   Em  C D7
When I walked by his side

And my heart would burst with priiiiide.
