G When a single mom goes out on a date with C somebody new
It al D ways winds up feeling more like a j C ob in G terview
My momma used to wonder if she'd e C ver meet someone
Who wouldn't D find out about me and then C turn around and G run
G I met the man I call my dad when C I was five years old
He took my D mom out to a movie and for C once I got to G go
A few months later I remember l C ying there in bed
I over h D eard him pop the question and I p C rayed that she'd say G yes
And then,
(chorus)
Am All of a sudden Oh it s D eemed so strange to me
How we w G ent from something's missing to a f C amily
Am Looking back all I can say D about all the things he did for Em me
Am Is I hope I'm at least half the D dad that he didn't have to G be.
G I met the girl who's now my wife about C three years ago
We h D ad the perfect marriage, but we w C anted something m G ore
Now here I stand surrounded by our f C amily and friends
Crowded r D ound the nursery window as they b C ring the baby G in
And now,
(chorus)
Am All of a sudden Oh it s D eemed so strange to me
How we've g G one from something's missing to a f C amily
Am Looking through the glass I think a D bout the man
who's standing next to Em me
Am And I hope I'm at least half the d D ad that he didn't have to G be!
