[Intro]
 
Bm7add4  Em7  A7sus4  D  Bm7add4  Em7  A7sus4  D
 
[Verse]
 
Bm7add4       Em7           A7sus4                   D
  I know a girl she puts the color inside of my world.
    Bm7add4              Em7                   A7sus4                    D
But she's just like a maze, where all of the walls all continually change.
Bm7add4         Em7                    A7sus4                     D
And I've done all I can to stand on her steps with my heart in my hand.
Bm7add4         Em7               A7sus4                D
Now I'm starting to see, maybe its got nothing to do with me.
 
[Chorus]
 
Bm7add4        Em7      A7sus4   D
Fathers be good to your daugh-ters.
Bm7add4           E7          A7sus4   D
Daughters will love like you do.
Bm7add4       Em7         A7sus4           D
Girls become lovers, who turn into mothers   
    Bm7add4     E7           A7sus4     D
So, mothers be good to your daughters too.
 
Bm Em7 A7sus4 D
 
[Verse]
 
Bm                  Em7
Oooh, you see that skin?
            A7sus4                   D
It's the same she's been standing in...
              Bm               Em7                    A7sus4
    since the day, she saw him walking away, now she's left...
                         D
cleaning up the mess he made.
 
[Chorus]
 
Bm7add4        Em7      A7sus4   D
Fathers be good to your daugh-ters.
Bm7add4           E7          A7sus4   D
Daughters will love like you do.
Bm7add4       Em7         A7sus4           D
Girls become lovers, who turn into mothers   
    Bm7add4     E7           A7sus4     D
So, mothers be good to your daughters too.
 
[Interlude]
 
Dsus2  Gm/D          D       A7sus4                         Bm7add4
  Boys you can break, you'll find out how much they can take.
                   Em7                  D/F#                Gm11
Boys will be strong, and boys soldier on but boys would be gone without
                A13
warmth from a woman's good, good heart.
 
Bm7add4  Em7 A7sus4  D  Bm7add4  Em7  A7sus4  D
 
              Bm7add4  Em7              A7sus4
On behalf of every man, looking out for every girl
D           Bm7add4      E7           A7sus4   D
you are the god and the weight of her world.

Fathers be good to your daugh-ters.

So, mothers be good to your daughters too.

I feel like there's an additional progression that should be after the A13 when he says "good, good heart" but I can't figure out what it is. Anyone have any ideas?

After the interlude, during the instrumental section, the Em7 should be changed to an E7.
