This is if you play it in Standard Tuning. If you want to play it one half step

thingy to bump everything up a half-step. My first time, so more constructive
criticism than flames :D

I watch her breathing while she sleeps
Eb Gm
And then a feeling buries me
C F
I?d die to see her walk to me
Gm
To smile in disbelief
Eb
At the ground beneath her feet
Eb Gm(up tempo)
She cracks a smile and shows her teeth
Eb Gm
It's been a year, she looks like me
Cm F
I?d die to teach her how to pray
Gm
To give to God each day
Eb
To know it when I say
Bb Eb
You?ll never be alone
Bb Eb
You?ll never be alone
Gm Eb
Even after all of your innocence is gone
Bb Eb
You?ll never be alone
Eb
One day soon she?ll say
Gm Eb G
Daddy, I love a boy and he loves me
Cm F
And I?ll watch her leave and then I?ll pray
Gm
And give to God that day
Eb
And hope her heart is safe
Eb Gm
A few weeks later she?ll come home
Eb Gm
Crying that boy had let her go
Cm C Cm F
He wasn?t ready yet to be
Gm
The kind of man she needs
F Gm Eb
So I hold her close and sing, softly
Bb Eb
You?ll never be alone
Bb Eb
You?ll never be alone
Gm Eb
Even as your heart is breaking don't lose hope
Bb Eb
You?ll never be alone
Gm F Bb Eb Cm Gm F
Eb Gm
One day soon, she?ll walk the aisle

My little girl, my precious child

Beautiful woman, veiled and sweet

As the tears roll down my cheek

And then I?ll whisper, softly
Bb Eb
You?ll never be alone

You?ll never be alone
F Gm Bb Eb
Even after God calls both your parents home
Bb Eb
You?ll never be alone
