(Verse 1)
You (Em)bought my first gui-(G)tar, and taught me (C)how to bait a (G)hook
Got (Em)ice cream after (G)every game, even (C)when I didn't play (G)good
You (Em)caught me lying (G)once and made damn (C)sure I learned my (G)lesson
But you (Em)held me when I (G)cried and told me (C)all 'bout doggie (G)heaven
(Am)Every spring you'd twirl me round that (C)little high school gym
I'd (Am)look around so proud to show you (D)off to my friends

(Chorus)
(C)Dad I hope you know that I'm still (G)standing (Am)on your (D)shoes
Cause (C)there ain't ever been a day that (G)I ain't (Am)needed (D)you
In this (Em)world that won't stop (D)spinning, you don't (C)let go of my (G/B)hand

If that (Em)boy don't get my (G)door I hear you (C)preaching in my (G)mind
Girl (Em)pay for your own (G)drink and leave, Honey (C)he ain't worth the (G)time
And those (Em)nights we're sipping (G)whiskey talking (C)life and good ci-(G)gars
I (Am)look at you, know it's gon' be (C)hard
To (Am)find someone that's (G)ever gon' be (C)half the man you (D)are

(Chorus)
(C)Dad, I hope you know that I'm still (G)standing (Am)on your (D)shoes
Cause (C)there ain't ever been a day that (G)I ain't (Am)needed (D)you

(Bridge)
One (Em)day my name'll (D)change, from a (G)Ms. to a (D)Mrs.
We'll (C)both be fighting tears, singing (G)Butterfly (D)Kisses
In the (C)center of that circle, (G)smiling cause we (D)know
This (C)dance started a long time ago (D)
