8th grade and crying at the counter
E          B              A
4 a.m. and drowning in her work

3 textbooks spread out around her
E     B            A
1 overwhelmed little girl

E             B            A
Her dad walks into the kitchen
E         B         A
so hard to see her so stressed
E             B            A
Still dark but he's there to listen

she's scared of failing her tests

She's wanted this job since she was 
a kid and
E         B             A
1 interview is all that’s left

He has such faith in his daughter

he's got a trick up his sleeve

E B A A (repeated through speech)
"I was naturally full of 
anticipation when Cody invited me to
 lunch last October
because he had something he... 
'wanted to discuss.’
When he finally quit beating around 
the bush and asked me
if he had my blessing to marry 
Carolyn,
without hesitation I consulted my 
mini Magic 8 Ball…
which I never leave home without…”

E            B            A
Last year I'm sweatin' in a bench 
seat
E         B            A
I've got a speech well-rehearsed
E          B          A
I'm here to ask for his blessing
E                 B           A
The father of that brave little 
nurse
E               B.            A
So I start while I've still got 
courage
E                   B           
"Your daughter has become my best 
A
friend
E             B             A
and though I'm scared, I'm so 
nervous
E        B          A
I plan to ask for her hand”
B                      C#m       
He looks at me and with no words 
       B
at all
                 A
he pulls out his Magic 8 ball…



           E          B A
And with a shake, shake of the Magic
 8
    E           B          A
my stress melts away and my fears 
are replaced
       C#m          B          A 
I can't see the words, but he 
                   B
says "It looks great…”

           E          B A
And with a shake, shake of the Magic
 8
    E           B         A
he says that I'm family and this is 
my place
       C#m        B          A
With a lifetime ahead, and a small 
dash of fate
  C#m        B           A
I will take care of your girl
  C#m          B         E
I will take care of your girl
