He Didn’t Have To Be By Brad Paisley
Capo 2nd fret
G C G C
G
When a single mom goes out on a date with
C
somebody new
D C
It always winds up feeling more like a job
G
interview
G C
My momma used to wonder if she'd ever meet someone
D
Who wouldn't find out about me and then
Am G
turn around and run
G C
I met the man I call my Dad when I was five years old
D C
He took my mom out to a movie and for once
G
I got to go
G C
A few months later I remember lying there in bed D
I over heard him pop the question and I
Am G
prayed that she'd say yes… And then,
Am D
All of a sudden, oh, it seemed so strange to me
G
How we went from something's missing to a
C
family
Am D
Looking back all I can say about all the
Em C
things he did for me
Am D
Is I hope I'm at least half the Dad that he
G C
didn't have to be.
G
I met the girl who's now my wife about
C
three years ago
D C
We had the perfect marriage, but we wanted
G
something more
G C
Now here I stand surrounded by our family and friends
D
Crowded round the nursery window as they
Am G
bring the baby in… And now,
Am D
All of a sudden, oh, it seemed so strange to me
G
How we've gone from something's missing to
C
a family
Am D
Looking through the glass I think about the
Em C
man who’s standing next to me
Am D
And I hope I'm at least half the Dad that
G C Am D
he didn't have to be!
Am D
Looking back all I can say about all the
Em C
things he did for me
Am D
Is I hope I'm at least half the Dad that he
G C
didn't have to be.
C G
Because he didn’t have to be.
C G
You know, he didn’t have to be.
