This song is in E, but the shape of the bass line is really prominent (1-6-4-1.
I find that it sounds better if you put the capo on the fourth fret and use the chords below.
All F chords should be barred for the same reason.
Intro: C-Am-F(bar)-C
C Am
She's close to God, I'm sure of that
F(barred) C
She sits him down, and they have a chat
C Am
She asks for sunshine, and he agrees
F Am
You see, for her, He'd do anything
CHORUS (short):
C Am
mmm mmm mmm mmm ooo oooo ooo oooh
F Am
You watch them grow, then you let 'em go
C Am
She is a monkey, and I'm her tree
F C
And now she's climbing all over me
C Am
Swinging on my vines dancing on my limbs
F Am
Her monkey sounds sound like angel's hymns
Chorus (full):
C Am
mmm mmm mmm mmm ooo oooo ooo oooh
F Am
You watch them grow, then you let 'em go
C Am
mmm mmm mmm mmm ooo oooo ooo oooh
F Am
You watch them grow, then you let 'em go
C Am
She is an angel, she is an imp
F C
She's got my big toe, and her mother's lips
C Am
She gives fishy kisses, and great big bear hugs
F Am
42 pounds of pure love
Bridge:
F [G] C F [G] C
Then one day she'll be seventeen, feelin' too big for her home
