Intro: G D Em C
       C G    Am D G

    G                     D      C          G
She walks like her old man, over active and thin
G                     D                C                D
She laughs at all the same things, that make her father grin
G          D      Em              C
She's only 15, no brothers in her clan
        C                G         Am    D     G
And her father calls her Cydi, his right hand man


G D Em D

G               D           C               G
She can drive a tractor, or curse a useless dog
G              D                 C               D
Shear a sheep, strain a fence or cut a nine foot log
        G             D       Em           C
She was meant to be a boy, it didn't go to plan
        C                G         Am    D     G
But her father loves his Cydi, his right hand man


G D Em D

        G           D              C             G
But the boys in the town today are turning their heads
G              D          C             D
Is that really Cydi, that tomboy kid of Ted's?
    G                D          Em            C
She used to kick the footy, win every race we ran
    C                  G                  Am    D     G
Ted knew the world was changing, for his right hand man


G D Em C
C G    Am D G


          G               D        C                  G
You won't find her in the kitchen, she won't make her bed
      G             D                  C             D
She'd rather make a sheep grate with a welder in the shed
   G                 D           Em             C
Or just be out there in the bush doing what she can
     C              G           Am    D     G
Just being with her father, his right hand man


G D Em D

        G                D              C                 G
And her mother takes her shopping, it's time she bought a dress
G              D            C                D
Looking in the mirror, "Not bad" she must confess
        G                D                 Em         C
But I'd rather have that pair of jeans and boots if I can
      C                  G         Am    D     G
She's still her father's Cydi, his right hand man


G D Em D


        G           D              C             G
And the boys in the town today are turning their heads
G              D          C             D
Is that really Cydi, that tomboy kid of Ted's?
    G                D          Em            C
She used to kick the footy, win every race we ran
    C                  G                 Am    D     G
Ted knew the world was changing, for his right hand man


G D Em C

         C                G         Am    D     G
Yeah her father loved his Cydi, his right hand man
