[Verse 1]
F C
Don't know much about you
Dm Bb
Don't know who you are
F C
We've been doing fine without you
Dm Bb
But, we could only go so far
F C
Don't know why you chose us
Dm Bb
Were you watching from above
F C
Is there someone there that knows us
Dm Bb F C Bb C
Said we'd give you all our love

[Verse 2]
F C
Will you laugh just like your mother
Dm Bb
Will you sigh like your old man
F C
Some things skip a generation
Dm Bb
Like I've heard they often can
C Dm
Are you a poet or a dancer
F C Bb
A devil or a clown
F C Dm
Or a strange new combination of
Bb C F C Bb C
The things we've handed down

[Verse 3]
F C
I wonder who you'll look like
Dm Bb
Will your hair fall down and curl
F C
Will you be a mama's boy
Dm Bb
Or daddy's little girl
F C
Will you be a sad reminder
Dm Bb
Of what's been lost along the way
F C
Maybe you can help me find her
Dm Bb F C Bb C
In the things you do and -- say
C Dm
And these things that we have given
F C Bb
They are not so easily found
F F/E Dm
But you can thank us later
C Bb C F F/E Dm
For the things we've handed down
Bb C F F/E Dm Bb
The things we've handed down

[Verse 4]
