[Am] [G] [F] [Em]
[Dm] [C] [Dm]
There's [C] a girl [Gm] who lives down the track [C] in a little [Gm] shack [F] made of timber wood
[G] And her clothes [F] are all hand-me-downs from the folks in [Dm] town [C] who treat her so good
Though she hasn't got
[F] [D] skis or a mic, [Dm] cause to me [G] she's a princess in a race
[C] Her dad, [C] he's a worn-out man, praying if he can [F] make enough to eat
And [G] her mom screams [F] for everyone to build a daycare center [C] just to make ends meet
All the wealth [Gm] is in her jar,
[F] [D]
[Dm] [G] a princess [C] in a race
Oh
[F] someday I'll find a way to take her [C] out of this old place
I'll work [D] and slay, [Am] imp [D] and say, [Dm] to change her as [G] to silk and lace
[C] Though it hurts and my body aches from the pain it [Gm] takes just [F] to set things right
[G] But for now [F] I must be content with each moment spent [C] in her arms each night
[Gm] She's the only girl for me,
[F] it's [D] gonna be [Dm] just me [G] and my princess in a race
[C] [D]
[C] She's the only girl [Gm] for me, [F] it's [D] gonna be [Gm] just me and my princess
[C]
