Intro chords C#  A#m  F#  G#  C#



C#                A#m                 C# 

Momma gives birth to a little child  Daddy waits with a patient smile

      F#                           G#

They tell him what he's brought in-to the world

 F#                           G#

They all can tell she'll be Daddy's girl.

A#m       X           C#

Hears a voice as she start to cry

A#m                 X           D#m

Looks through the window, tears fall from his eyes

(D#m)                                 G#                         C#

Overwhelmed with the thoughts of the day he swears he hears her say



CHORUS:

              A#m                     C# 

Daddy can you see me?  Daddy can you hear the words I say?

F#                        G#

I've got your hands your eyes and your hair 

     (G#)         F#m                    A#m   

1.) And this    little thing you call a Teddy Bear

2.) And I still hold on to my           Teddy Bear

F#                     G#                                  C# 

I'll do what I can to make you proud Daddy can you see me now?



C#                           A#m

He takes me fishing like I'm one of the guys

C#

No one can break these ties that bind

F#                         G#

We've got a bond that's precious and dear

F#                                G#

And it's stayed the same through all theses years

A#m        X        C# 

As I get older and time goes by

A#m          X            D#m

He's got a shoulder if I need to cry

(D#m)                          G# 

When I think that I'm doing o. k.

(G#)               C#

I look to him and say



Go to chorus, bridge



BRIDGE:

F#                         G#

I look to the heavens for some kind of sign

    C#                  A#m     

For you to tell me that I'm doing fine

     F#                  G#      

And every night when I kneel down to pray

F#                                    A#

I wonder if you hear me (key change) say

               Cm                     D#

Daddy can you see me?  Daddy can you hear the words I say?

G#                        A#

My life has change  since you went away

       Cm                          B 

And I need to know if I'm doing o. k.

      G#                A#

I've done all I can to make you proud

(A#)                  D#    Cm G# A#

Daddy can you see me now?

          G#               A#                                  D#

Oh I've done all I can to make you proud Daddy can you see me now?



D# Cm G# A# D#
