Verse 1

Well, Flook at ya, kid

When you Dmtell me you’re F/Cready to Bbgo C

Verse 2

And now you’re as Fquick as a whip
With your Bbhands on your hips
Only Feyes that could rival your Bbmum's
And so Fproudly I’ll watch
You make the Bbworld better off

So my Dmprayer is wherF/Cever you Bbgo

Chorus 1

May the Bbroad rise up to Bbmeet you
May the Dmwind blow where you Dmlead

The F/Crain falls on your Cfields
May the Bbworld lie down before Bbyou

May you Bbbe all Cyou Dm7can be
But may Dm7all those F/Croads you Bbroam
