INTRO: C - C (second string, walk down 3-2-0)
Am F
She stepped off of the boat to see flowers in his hands
C G
The man she would marry was as hard as the mountains
Am F
She had his children in a one room log cabin
C G
Soon I'd be another star in this family's constellation
Am
In the land of the midnight sun
G
Searching for gold
C
I am my father's daughter
G
He has his mother's eyes
Am F
I am the product of their sacrifice
C G
I am the accumulation of the dreams of generations
Am F-C-G
And their stories live in me like holy water
C
I am my father's daughter
Am F
My father raised me in a one room log cabin
C G
And he sang for me the songs his mother sang for him
Am F
And honkey-tonks, and empty bars, just me and him
C
And that old guitar
G
He passed on a legacy wrapped up in a melody
Am
That I carry on
G
Searching for gold
C
I am my father's daughter
G
I have my Gramma's eyes
Am F
I am the product of their sacrifice
C G
I am the accumulation of the dreams of generations
Am F-C- G
And their stories live in me like holy water
C
I am my father's daughter
Am F
And every time I step on stage
C
And the music finds me
Am G
I don't need gold to remind me
That I am my father's daughter
I have my Grandma's eyes
I am the product of such sacrifice
I am the accumulation of the dreams of generations
And their stories live in me like holy water
I am my father's daughter
I am my father's daughter
Oh, I am my father's daughter
