[C#m]
If [F#] [E]
[A] you [E] leap awake in the [A] mirror of a [B] [E] bad dream
And for a fraction of a [C#m] second you can't [F#] remember where [C#m] you are
Just [A] open your [E] window [F#m] and follow [B] your [E] memory upstream
[C#] To the meadow [C#m] in the mountain where we counted [B] every [C#m] false star
I believe [A] the light that [E] shines on you [F#m] will shine [B] on you [E] forever
And [C#m] though I can't guarantee there's nothing scary [B] hiding [C#m] under your bed
I'm [A] gonna [E] stand guard like a [B] postcard of a golden [E] retriever
And [C#m] never leave till I leave you the sweet [B] dream in [C#m] your head
[A] I'm [C#m] [E] gonna watch [A] you shine, gonna watch [E] you grow
Gonna paint a sign so you'll always know
As [A] long as one and one [E] is two
[F#]
[A] There [C#m] could never be a father loved his daughter [B] more than I [C#m] love you
Trust
[A] [G#m]
[B] [E] your intuition, it's just like going fishing
[C#m] You cast your line and [B] hope you get a [C#m] bite
But you don't need [A] to waste [C#m] your [F#m]
time
[B] [E] Worrying about the marketplace, trying to help the human race
[C#] Struggling [C#m] to survive [B] this [C#m] harshest night
[F#]
[F#m] [E] I'm gonna watch you shine, gonna watch you grow
Gonna paint a sign so you'll always know
As [F#] long as one and [E] one is two
