Lyrics
SHE’S YOURS by Stan C. Countz
VERSE 1
G Bm
I was there when she said her first word
C G
I was there when she took her first step
Bm
It seems to me to be absurd but
C D
It’s been hard for me to accept
C D
That she’s become a lovely young girl
B C
She’s grown up right before my eyes
C D
She’s no more in ribbons and curls
B C
So it’s high time I realize…
SHORT CHORUS
G Bm
I’m no more the man in her life
C G
I’m no more the guy she adores
Bm
She’s gone from my girl to your wife
C G
I’ve done my part, now she’s yours
VERSE 2
G Bm
I've done my time, I paid my dues
C G
I tried to make her do her chores
Bm
I’ve been battered, I've been bruised
C G
But I’ll be fine, now that she’s yours
CHORUS / OUTRO
G Bm
I tried to raise her right
C G
To love and praise the Lord
Bm
Sometimes we'd even fight
C G
but we knew what we were fightin' for
G Bm
I pass the baton on to you
C G
Hope I've opened a few doors
G Bm
So love her now with a love that's true
C G
I’ve done my part, now do yours
REPEAT VERSE 1
CHORUS/OUTRO
G Bm
I’m no more the man in her life
C G
I’m no more the guy she adores
Bm
She’s gone from my girl to your wife
C G
I’ve done my part, now she’s yours
Bm
She’s gone from my girl to your wife
C G
I’ve done my part, now she’s yours
