[Chorus]
C
Fathers love daughters like mothers love sons
Am
They've been writing our story before there was one
Dm
From the day you arrive, till you walk, till you run
F
There is nothing but pride, there is nothing but love
[Verse]
C
They can offer advice that you don't wanna hear
Am
Words that cut like a knife and still ring in your ear
Dm
You think of them ignorant, they think of you arrogant
F
If you need evidence, who gave you confidence?
C
A snap of the finger and you're not a child
Am
But you're still holding on as you walk down the aisle
Dm
When they give you away to hear someone else say
F
That someone will love you till their dying day
[Instrumental]

[Chorus]
C
Fathers love daughters like mothers love sons
Am
They've been writing our story before there was one
Dm
From the day you arrive till you walk, till you run
F C C/B Am G
There is nothing but pride, there is nothing but love
F G C
And that's the story of love
[Verse]
C
You can choose to remember or choose to forget
Am
If they took you to school or they tucked you in bed
Dm
You can say it don't matter, you won't do the same
F
You'd think no one noticed when you looked away
[Chorus]
C
Fathers love daughters like mothers love sons
Am
They've been writing our story before there was one
Dm
From the day you arrive till you walk, till you run
F
There is nothing but pride, there is nothing but love
[Verse]
C
Now they're getting older and you ain't so young
Am
So you take care of them like your daughters and sons
Dm
You can ask for forgiveness, they could ask for the same
F G
Forget all the anguish, the heartache, the pain
C
Wherever you go or wherever you've been
Am
It's them that is with you and that's you that's with them
Dm
Fathers and daughters and mothers and sons
F
As one story ends another's, another's begun
[Instrumental]
| Am | Dm | G | G |
[Chorus]
C
Oh, fathers love daughters like mothers love sons
Am
They've been writing our story before there was one
Dm
From the day you arrive till you walk, till you run
F
There is nothing but pride, there is nothing but love
Dm
From hello to goodbye
G C C/B Am G F G
That's the story of love

That's the story of love
