Intro:  G   D   Em  C  
       C G    Am D G
She Gwalks like her old manD, over Cactive and Gthin
GShe laughs at all the Dsame things, that Cmake her father Dgrin
GShe's only D15, no Embrothers in her Cclan
And her Cfather calls her GCydi, his Amright Dhand mGan
G D Em D
GShe can drive a Dtractor, or Ccurse a useless Gdog
GShear a sheep, Dstrain a fence or Ccut a nine foot Dlog
She was Gmeant to be a Dboy, it Emdidn't go to Cplan
But her Cfather loves his GCydi, his Amright Dhand mGan
G D Em D
But the Gboys in the Dtown today are Cturning their Gheads

She Gused to kick the Dfooty, win Emevery race we Cran

G D Em C
C G    Am D G
You won't Gfind her in the Dkitchen, Cshe won't make her Gbed
She'd Grather make a Dsheep grate with a Cwelder in the Dshed
Or Gjust be out there Din the bush Emdoing what she Ccan
Just Cbeing with her Gfather, his Amright Dhand mGan
G D Em D
And her Gmother takes her Dshopping, it's Ctime she bought a Gdress
GLooking in the Dmirror, "Not Cbad" she must conDfess
But I'd Grather have that Dpair of jeans and Emboots if I Ccan
She's Cstill her father's GCydi, his Amright Dhand mGan
G D Em D
And the Gboys in the Dtown today are Cturning their Gheads
GIs that really DCydi, that Ctomboy kid of DTed's?
She Gused to kick the Dfooty, win Emevery race we Cran
Ted Cknew the world was Gchanging, for his Amright Dhand mGan
G D Em C
Yeah her Cfather loved his GCydi, his Amright Dhand mGan
