Throught the whole song! Enjoy! G D Am Em G D Am (F) Em Yeah I know sometimes things may not always make sense to you right now But hey, what'd daddy always tell you? Straighten up little soldier Stiffen up that upper lip Whatchu crying about? You got me. [Verse 1] Hailie, I know u miss your mom And I know u miss your dad when I'm gone But I'm tryin' to give you the life that I never had I can see you're sad Even when you smile Even when you laugh I can see it in your eyes Deep inside you wanna cry Cuz you're scared I ain't there, Daddy's with you in your prayers No more cryin' Wipe them tears Daddy's here No more nightmares We gonna pull together through it We gon' do it Lainie's uncle's crazy ain't he, yeah But he loves you girl and you better know it We're all we got in this world When it spins When it swirls When it whirls When it twirls Two little beautiful girls Lookin' puzzled, in a daze I know it's confusing you Daddy's always on the move Mama's always on the news I try to keep you sheltered from it But somehow it seems, the harder that I try to do that The more it backfires on me All the things, growin' up As daddy, daddy had to see Daddy don't want you to see But you see just as much as he did We did not plan it to be this way, Your mother and me But things have got so bad between us I don't see us ever being Together ever again Like we used to be like when we was teenagers But then of course Everything always happens for a reason I guess it was never meant to be But it's just something We have no control over And that's what destiny is But no more worries Rest your head and go to sleep Maybe one day we'll wake up And this will all just be a dream [Chorus] Now hush little baby don't you cry Every thing's gonna be all right Stiffin' that upper lip up little lady I told ya Daddy's here to hold ya through the night I know mommy's not here right now and we don't know why [ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/mockingbird-lyrics-eminem.html ] We fear how we feel inside, it may seem a little crazy Pretty baby but I promise, Mama's gon' be alright [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/e/eminem/260511.html ] [Verse two] It's funny, I remember back one year when daddy had no money Mommy wrapped the Christmas presents up And stuck 'em under the tree And said some of 'em were from me, Cuz daddy couldn't buy 'em I'll never forget that Christmas I sat up the whole night crying Cuz daddy felt like a bum, See daddy had a job, but his job Was to keep the food on the table for you and mom And at the time every house that we lived in Either kept getting broken into and robbed or shot up on the block And your mom, was saving money for you in a jar Tryna to start a piggy bank for you So you could go to college Almost had a thousand dollars 'Till someone broke in and stole it And I know it hurt so bad it broke your mamma's heart And it seemed like everything was just starting to fall apart Mom and dad was arguing a lot So mama moved back on to Chalmers in a flat One bedroom apartment And dad moved back to the other side of 8 mile on Novara And that's when daddy went to California with his CD And met Dr. Dre and flew you and Mama out to see me, But daddy had to work, you and mama had to leave me, Then you started seeing daddy on the TV And mama didn't like it And you and Lainnie were too young to understand it Papa was a rollin' stone, mama developed a habit And it all happened too fast for either one of us to grab it I'm just sorry you were there and had to witness it firsthand Cuz all I ever wanted to do was just make you proud Now I'm sittin' in this empty house, Just reminiscing. Looking at your baby pictures it just trips me out To see how much you both have grown it's almost like you're sisters now Wow, guess you pretty much are and daddy's still here Lainnie I'm talking to you too daddy's still here I like the sound of that, yeah It's got a ring to it don't it Shhh, mama's only gone for the moment [Chorus] Now hush little baby don't you cry Every thing's gonna be all right Stiffin' that upper lip up little lady I told ya Daddy's here to hold ya through the night I know mommy's not here right now and we don't know why We fear how we feel inside, it may seem a little crazy Pretty baby but I promise, mama's gon' be alright [End chorus] And if you ask me to, daddy's gonna buy you a mocking bird I'ma give you the world, I'ma buy a diamond ring for you, I'ma sing for you, I'll do anything for you to see you smile And if that mockingbird don't sing and that ring don't shine I'ma break that birdie's neck, I'll go back to the jeweler Who sold it to ya And make him eat every carat Don't fuck with Dad (ha ha) From Sebastian Frojd |
