GFather Father Father
It's Gmaj7been a long time how are you F#m(addm6)doing?

Of Gmaj7hearing prayers like mine no need to F#m(addm6)answer
F#m Nobody likes knowing that Bmfavors Bm7
Are all they'll Dmaj9ever E7 Abe
[Chorus 1]
But there's this F#mgirl this girl this girl this girl Athis girl
And I'd be the Emhappiest backslider in the Gworld
If you would Gtell her it's your Csus2will for us to Gbe Gmaj7to---
