[Intro] N.C. Riff x2 D Em C G x2 [Verse 1]
   G                  C           Bm     C
My father is called Miranda these days

        G                 C              Bm                   C
She's a proud transgender woman and my resentment has started to fade

               G           C                     Bm           C
Because it was never about who she was just the way that he behaved

           G           C               Bm   C
And now my father is Miranda and we're OK
[Chorus]
           D       Em             C    G
In all the years we were estranged

             D     Em                                  C       G
I was always hoping that you would find a way to change

          D     Em                        C        G
And after every  -  thing that we've been through

  D    Em                        C     G
Miranda, it's lovely to meet you
[Break] D Em C G x2 [Verse 2]
           G               C                         Bm    C
When I was young he always seemed so filled with rage

       G           C                    Bm           C
He was angry at my clothes, my hair, my music, my teen age

        G          C                     Bm           C
But one sunny afternoon, she was dancing next to me on stage

          G            C        Bm       C
I felt my anger drain away from inside my rib cage
[Chorus]
           D       Em             C    G
In all the years we were estranged

             D     Em                                  C       G
I was always hoping that you would find a way to change

          D     Em                        C        G
And after every  -  thing that we've been through

  D    Em                        C     G
Miranda, it's lovely to meet you
[Bridge]

    For someone who doesn't know

Emmaj7/B                                      Cmaj7   Cmaj7#11

                  Who you really are

G       Em     C
                  Who you really are

G       Em     C
                  And who you've always been

        Who you've always been

In all the years that we have left

             D           Em                      C    G
Let's be our best selves,    and let's be friends

        D         Em                  C      G
I'll be me, promise me that you'll be you

      D    Em                        C    G
Oh, Miranda, it's lovely to meet you

      D    Em                        C    G
Oh, Miranda, it's lovely to meet you
