C#m                       A       E
Front row center in that little white church
       B                       A     E
I was singing at a baby laying in a manger
C#m                     A      E
Eight years old wearing angel wings
           B                    A   E
Yeah, and to this day, that's what you see

I've been daddy's little girl since my first cry
And it was hard turning eighteen, saying goodbye
You told me I was gonna take the world by storm
And mama said you cried all the way home

Chorus:
           E                         A   E
You think I'm strong, you think I'm fearless
          C#m             A   E
Even when I'm, I'm at my weakest
            E                   A  E
You always see the best in me when I can't
        C#m               A     E
I wanna be the girl you think I am

I got my flaws and I've got regrets
And I know there's more on the road ahead
When I wonder if I'll ever measure up
Oh, I thank God for a father's love

Chorus:
'Cause you think I'm brave, and you think
I'm beautiful
You think that I can do the impossible
You always see the best in me when I can't
I wanna be the girl you think I am

B   C#m
Oh, whoa
A                  E
The girl you think I am, yeah
B    C#m  A
Ooh, Ooh, yeah

All I want, more than anything
Is to make you proud of me

Chorus:
'Cause you think I'm strong,
and you think I'm fearless
Even when I'm, I'm at my weakest
You believe in me
Yeah, you're my biggest fan
So I wanna be the girl you think I am
I wanna be the girl you think I am
