When a G single mom goes out on a date with C somebody new
It D always winds up feeling more like a j C ob G interview
My momma used to wonder if she'd C ever meet someone
Who wouldn't D find out about me and then C turn around and G run
I G met the man I call my dad when C I was 5 years old
He too D k my mom out to a movie and for C once I got to G go
A few months later I remember C lying there in bed
I overhea D rd him pop the question and I p C rayed that she'd s G ay yes... And then
(1st Chorus)
Am All of a sudden oh it D seemed so strange to me
How we G went from somethings C missing to a family
Am Looking back all I can say D about all the things he did for Em me
Is G I hope I'm at least half the C dad that he didn't have to be
(Chords stay the same for next verse)
I met the girl who's now my wife about three years ago
We had the perfect marriage, but we wanted something more
Now here I stand surrounded by our family and friends
Crowded round the nursery window as they bring the baby in... And now
(2nd Chorus) - (Chords Stay same - Words Change)
All of a sudden oh it seemed so strange to me
How we've gone from somethings missing to a family
Looking through the glass I think about the man who's standing next to me
And I hope I'm at least half the dad that he didn't have to be
