Chord/Tab song: Delaney Talks to Statues

Intro(Capo at IV): A, E, B, E x4

[A]Delaney [E]talks to [B]stat[E]ues
As she [A]dances '[B]round the [E]pool
[A]She chases [E]cats through [B]roman r[E]uins
And [A]stomps on[B] big toadsto[E]ols
[A]She speaks a [E]language [B]all her [E]own
That [A]I can[E]not dis[B]cov[E]er
[A]But she [E]knows I [B]love her [E]so
When I [A]tuck her '[E]neath the [B]cove[E]rs

CHORUS
[A]Fath[E]er, d[B]aught[E]er
[A]Down [E]by the [B]wat[E]er
[A]Shells [E]sink, [B]dreams [E]float
[A]Life's [E]good on [B]our [E]boat

Verse 2 (same as 1)
Delaney draws me pictures
She finger paints the sand
We chase the dogs and hop like frogs
Then I do my bad handstand
She's growing up too fast for me
And asking lots of questions
Some I know the answers to
And some I'm looking for suggestions

CHORUS 2 (same as 1)
Father, daughter
Born by the water
Surf's up, sun's down
Life in a beach town

BRIDGE
[C#m]And some of the [G#m]things I've seen
Maybe [Bm]she won't have to s[A]ee
[C#m]But there's a lot I want to [G#m]pass along
That was [D]handed down to [A]me

Verse 3 (same)
Delaney talks to statues
As she dances 'round the pool
She chases cats through Roman ruins
And stomps on big toadstools
She speaks a language all her own
Just a little like her mother
And she knows I love her so
When I tuck her 'neath the covers

Chorus 3 (same)
Father, daughter
Down by the water
Shells sink, dreams float
Life's good on our boat
