Elisabeth

Capo 4

This is the easy way to play this. 
You can capo on 1 and play in the 
key of F


D                          Bm7
Namesake to Elisabeth, her daddy's 
pride and joy
G
Baptized in her mama's tears soon 
after she was born
           D                       
'Cause the doctor said she'd never 
        Bm7
live to see her sweet sixteen
       G           D              
It's a miracle she beat those odds
             G                   
 and there's still no promise she 
             Em
will see tomorrow
                       B           
It makes me wonder how life can 
     A                G
give someone so much and take so 
much away

    D         Bm7             
Oh, Elisabeth, you're a teacher 
           G
you're a saint
    A               G
And I'm so glad you came to us
D         Bm7                
Elisabeth, you make the world a 
          G
better place
         Bm               A       
With the kindness of your smile 
       E7
and your love
         G                         
And your beauty will live on and 
       D
on, Elisabeth

-------------------- 



She might not ever marry or hold a 
baby of her own
Things we all take for granted are 
the things she may never know
But she believes there's always hope
 and that's all she really has
So she walks through life with 
passion and with dignity and class
And when she cries, she cries in 
silence but never for herself
She cries for everybody else, for 
everybody else
