Cleaning This Gun

	  		Intro: D 

D 
The declaration of independence 
              C                  G                        D        
Think I can tell you that first sentence, But then I'm lost 
D 
I can't begin to count the theories 
       C              G             D 
I had pounded in my head that I forgot 
            A                              G 
I don't remember all that Spanish Or the Gettysburg address 
              A                            G 
But there is one speech from high school, I'll never forgot 


D                A               G                 A 
Come on in boy, sit on down and tell me 'bout yourself 
        D                    A                 G                     
So you like my daughter, do you now, yeah we think she's  
            A 
something else 
            Bm 
She's her daddy's girl and her mama's world 
       G                       D                       Em 
She deserves respect, that's what she'll get, ain't it son 
                         A 
Now y'all run along and have some fun 
      G                                  D          A 
I'll see you when you get back, Bet I'll be up all night 
                 D 
Still cleaning this gun 


D                                          
Well now that I'm a father 
                C                G                D 
I'm scared to death one day my daughter's gonna find,  
                            
That teenage boy I used to be 
     C                   G                D 
Who seems to have just one thing on his mind 
               A                             G 
She's growing up so fast it won't be long before  
      A 
I'll have to put the fear of god 
       G 
Into some kid at the door 

Repeat Chorus 

 A                                         G 
It's all for show, ain't nobody gonna get hurt 
              Bm          A                      G 
It's just a daddy thing, hey believe me man, it works 

Repeat Chorus

Walk the BM out into G (if barring BM lift bar finger 
striking 5th string then to G) 
Close as I could get.  Mike Oliver
