Bm7 Em7
I know a girl
Asus4 D
She puts the color inside of my world
Bm7 Em7
She's just like a maze
Asus4 D
Where all of the walls all continually change
Bm7 Em7
I've done all I can
Asus4 D
To stand on the steps with my heart in my hands
Bm7 Em7
Now I’m starting to see
Asus4 D
Maybe it’s got nothing to do with me
Chorus:
Bm7 E7 G D
So fathers be good to your daughters,
Bm7 E7 G D
Daughters will love like you do,
Bm7 E7 G D
Girls become lovers who turn into mothers
Bm7 E7 G D
So mothers be good to your daughters too

Its the same she’s been standing in

Since the day she saw him walkin’ away
Asus4 D
Now she’s left cleaning up the mess he made
Chorus:
Bm7 E7 G D
So fathers be good to your daughters,

Daughters will love like you do,
Bm7 E7 G D
Girls become lovers who turn into mothers
Bm7 E7 G D
So mothers be good to your daughters too

But boys would be gone
Without the warmth of a woman's good, good heart

11 ukulele chords used in "Daughters" by John Mayer: Asus4, Bb, Bm7, D, Dmaj7, Dsus2, Eb, E7, Em7, F and G
+5 worked best for me (1 yr playing)
+5 Is probably the easiest alternative, although it’s still not that easy. I recommend playing Aminor instead of A7
On the last line of the bridge, “Without the warmth of a woman’s good, good heart”, the chords were left out and I’m having a problem trying to figure them out. Any assist? I’m kinda just learning this stuff. 😀
I think it sounds good to play an Em7 on the word “woman’s” in the bridge
the second riff where it goes
xC|—–1-2-|—–1-2-
xG|-4——-|-4——-
that second 4 just doesnt sound right when you hear the song
