Daddy told me

When I was young

He said, it's a long road you've begun

Sometimes it's easy
DDsus4
Sometimes it's hard

But as you walk the road, remember who you are
Chorus:
E
You gotta roll with the punches
G
You gotta aim to hit the mark
E7
You gotta follow your hunches
G
And try to finish what you start
D
And when you come to the crossroads
D7
And you're deciding in the dark
CGD
You've gotta listen to the whisper of your heart

He said, make it a practice

To be true

In your dreams

And to sing your song, if you've got a song to sing
