Dear Theodosia, what to say to you?

                        G                  A
You have my eyes. You have your mother's name

           D                        F#m                   Bm    G    A
When you came into the world, you cried and it broke my heart

  D                    F#m              Bm
I'm dedicating every day to you

                     G             A
Domestic life was never quite my style

           D           F#m
When you smile

                           Bm
You knock me out, I fall apart

                         G          A
And I thought I was so smart

           D                          F#m
You will come of age with our young nation

                  Bm                           G        A
We'll bleed and fight for you, we'll make it right for you

       D                       F#m
If we lay a strong enough foundation

               Bm                          G
We'll pass it on to you, we'll give the world to you

             A           D
And you'll blow us all away...
[Chorus]
     F#m      Bm     G
Someday, someday

               A           D
Yeah, you'll blow us all away

     F#m      Bm G  A
Someday, someday
[Bridge]
G                    A  G
My father wasn't around

                    A   G
My father wasn't around

                         A          G
I swear that I'll be around for you

                A     G
I'll do whatever it takes

                     A     G
I'll make a million mistakes

                                     A   D
I'll make the world safe and sound for you...

We'll come of age with our young nation

                  Bm                           G         A
We'll bleed and fight for you, we'll make it right for you

        D                     F#m
If we lay a strong enough foundation

               Bm
We'll pass it on to you (on to you)

                G
We'll give the world to you (world to you)

            A                  D
And you'll blow us all away...

     F#m      Bm    G        
Someday, someday

Yeah, you'll blow us all away

     F#m      Bm    G    A          D
Someday, someday
