I appreciate any input!
As You Can Imagine OR Look At Me I'm Old
I hear “Daddy can you teach me now
I wanna learn to drive
I’ve waited sixteen years for this
My time has now arrived”
I hear “Daddy can you spare some dollars
So I can buy some gas
I’ve gotta shop for brand new boots
And I’m outta cash”
[ch]
As you can imagine
I should be laughin’
But look at me I’m old
My daughter is my baby
But my baby’s now a lady
And I’m losin’ all control
She says “Daddy, Bobby likes me
Wants to take me to the dance
He’s a real nice guy you know
He listens and understands”
She says “Daddy will you walk me
Down the aisle when I wed
It’s comin' before you know it
We gotta plan ahead”
[ch]
As you can imagine
I should be laughin’
But look at me I’m old
My daughter is my baby
But my baby’s now a lady
And I’m losin’ all control
(br)
Rock-a-bye and hide-and-seek
Happened so long ago
Like toothless grins and pimpled chins
And angels in the snow
[ch]
As you can imagine
I should be laughin’
But look at me I’m old
My daughter is my baby
But my baby’s now a lady
And I’m losin’ all control
Oh, my baby’s now a lady
For someone else to hold

OPTIONAL Chorus w/lift and one added line to chorus:
[lift]
As you can imagine
I should be laughin’
[ch]
But look at me I’m old
My daughter is my baby
But my baby’s now a lady
And I’m losin’ all control
Yeah, look at me I’m old
