Verse 1
LA MI SI MI
Delaney talks to statues
LA SI MI
As she dances 'round the pool
LA MI SI MI
She chases cats through roman ruins
LA SI MI
And stomps on big toadstools
LA MI SI MI
She speaks a language all her own
LA MI SI MI
That I cannot discover
LA MI SI MI
But she knows I love her so
LA MI SI MI
When I tuck her 'neath the covers
CHORUS
LA MI SI MI
Father, daughter
LA MI SI MI
Down by the water
LA MI SI MI
Shells sink, dreams float
LA MI SI MI
Life's good on our boat
Verse 2 (same as 1)
Delaney draws me pictures
She finger paints the sand
We chase the dogs and hop like frogs
Then I do my bad handstand
She's growing up too fast for me
And asking lots of questions
Some I know the answers to
And some I'm looking for suggestions
CHORUS 2 (same as 1)
Father, daughter
Born by the water
Surf's up, sun's down
Life in a beach town
BRIDGE
DO#m SOL#m
And some of the things I've seen
SIm LA
Maybe she won't have to see
DO#m SOL#m
But there's a lot I want to pass along
RE LA
That was handed down to me
Verse 3 (same)
Delaney talks to statues
As she dances 'round the pool
She chases cats through Roman ruins
And stomps on big toadstools
She speaks a language all her own
Just a little like her mother
And she knows I love her so
When I tuck her 'neath the covers
Chorus 3 (same)
Father, daughter
Down by the water
Shells sink, dreams float
Life's good on our boat
