[Verse 1]
    D
The reason I write to you daughter
      D
These words of your well weathered father
     G/E
Is I believe
                   D
You were a gift to me
  D
Unless I've been madly mistaken
     D
I've felt every breath you have taken
             G/E    G
And like the breeze
                    D
You were made to be free

[Chorus 1]
        Bm            D/A
Free to live in every moment
     Bm           D/A
Like time is no opponent
           G                     D/A
But just a guide that'll see you through
           A                    D
Girl don't hide whats inside of you

[Verse 2]
      D
Oh my dear you are ever changin'
    D
You know we are waxin' and wanin'
             G/E
And like the moon
               D
We're becoming new
D
Though we will have hard days and sorrows
D
Know lady time has been borrowed
            G/E    G
And you can choose
                      D
To hear her whispered truths


[Chorus 2]
          Bm             D/A
Choose to learn in every moment
     Bm           D/A
Like time is no opponent
           G/D                    D
But just a guide that'll see you through
           A                     D
Girl don't hide what you know is true
        Bm                 D/A
Oh hold on to your awe and wonder
      Bm                 D/A
Don't let them get torn asunder
     G/D                   D
Be a fire that'll burn you through
           A                     D
Girl don't hide what you know is true

[Verse 3]
      D
Oh my dear may you always remember
   D
To fight for your heart to stay tender
             G/E
And you will see
                  D
It changes everything
N.C.
Your forgiveness is worth all the trouble
N.C.
For after the wreckage and rubble
N.C.
You'll be free
N.C
Hope you've forgiven me.


[Chorus 3]
                Bm            D/A
You are Free to love in every moment
     Bm         D/A
Like time is no opponent
           G/D                   D
But just a guide that'll see you through
           A                     D
Girl don't hide what's inside of you
        Bm                 D/A
Oh hold on to your awe and wonder
        Bm                 D/A
Don't let them get torn asunder
             G/D                   D
They'll be a fire that'll burn you through
           A                    D
Girl don't hide there inside of you


[Outro]
             G/D                   D
They'll be a fire that'll burn you through
           A                     D
Girl, down right there inside of you
           G/D                    D
There is a father that'll see you through
        A                      D
Let Him walk right in front of you
