[Intro]

G Em C D

[Verse 1]

G Em7

I’m five years old

It’s getting cold

I’ve got my big coat on

G Em7

I hear your laugh

And look up smiling at you

I run and run

G Em7

Past the pumpkin patch

And the tractor rides look now,

The sky is gold

G Em7 C

I hug your legs and fall asleep

On the way home

[Chorus]

C D G D/F# Em

I don’t know why all the trees change in the fall

C D G D/F# Em

I know you’re not scared of anything at all

C D G D/F# Em

Don’t know if Snow White’s house is near or far away

C D G Em7 C D

But I know I had the best day with you today

[Verse 2]

G Em7

I’m thirteen now

And don’t know how my friends

Could be so mean

G Em7

I come home crying

And you hold me tight

And grab the keys

G Em7

And we drive and drive

Until we found a town

Far enough away

G Em7

And we talk and window-shop

C D

'til I’ve forgotten all their names

[Chorus]

C D G D/F# Em

I don’t know who I’m gonna talk to now at school

C D G D/F# Em

I know I’m laughing on the car ride home with you

C D G D/F# Em

Don’t know how long it’s gonna take to feel okay

C D G

But I know I had the best day with you today

[Bridge]

I have an excellent father

His strength is making me stronger

God smiles on my little brother

Em D

Inside and out he’s better than I am

C G

I grew up in a pretty house

D/F#

And I had space to run

C D

And I had the best days with you

G Em7

There is a video

C D

I found from back when I was three

G Em7 C

You set up a paint set in the kitchen

And you’re talking to me

G Em7 C

It’s the age of princesses and pirate ships

And the seven dwarves

G Em7 C

And Daddy’s smart and you're the prettiest lady

In the whole wide world

[Chorus]

C D G D/F# Em

Now I know why all the trees change in the fall

C D G D/F# Em

I know you were on my side even when I was wrong

C D

And I love you for giving me your eyes

G D/F# Em

Staying back and watching me shine

C D

And I didn’t know if you knew

G D/F# Em

So I’m taking this chance to say

C D G

That I had the best day with you today
