cleaning this gun
rodney atkins
D
The declaration of independence
G
Think I can tell you that first sentence, But then I'm lost
D
I can't begin to count the theories
C G
I had pounded in my head that I forgot
A G
I don't remember all that Spanish Or the Gettysburg address
A G
But there is one speech from high school, I'll never forgot
Chorus
D A G A
Come on in boy, sit on down and tell me 'bout yourself
D A G A
So you like my daughter, do you now, yeah we think she's something else
Bm
She's her daddy's girl and her mama's world
G D Em
She deserves respect, that's what she'll get, ain't it son
A
Now y'all run along and have some fun
G D A
I'll see you when you get back, Bet I'll be up all night
D
Still cleaning this gun
D
Well now that I'm a father
C G D
I'm scared to death one day my daughter's gonna find,
C
That teenage boy I used to be
G D
Who seems to have just one thing on his mind
A G
She's growing up so fast it won't be long before
A
I'll have to put the fear of god
G
Into some kid at the door
Chorus
A G
It's all for show, ain't nobody gonna get hurt
Bm A G
It's just a daddy thing, hey believe me man, it works
Chorus
