[MAY 2024] Songsterr tab for Weezer's "I'm Your Daddy" has been updated, as per user request!
(This song's existing tab was incomplete and lacked a number of instruments, so I chose to rewrite it from the ground up.)
"I'm Your Daddy" is the second track from Weezer's oft-panned 2009 album, Raditude. While I also agree that this is one of Weezer's weakest albums, there are still a few tracks on it that I do not mind listening to, of which "I'm Your Daddy" is one. It's lyrical choice is peculiar—you won't catch me singing this one out loud—but I can appreciate how high-energy it is, and its power-poppy feel reminds me of a number of tracks that I like from Hurley (2010) for their similar high-octane vibes, including "Ruling Me" and "Brave New World".
Overall, the track's composition is on the simpler side of Weezer tracks, featuring guitars that stay distorted for all of the song, as well as bass, drums, vocals, and synth. The song is power-chord heavy with a simple drumbeat and repeating chord progressions. The only difficult part was the bridge, wherein the distortion initially led me to mishear which notes were being played; in this case, viewing "live" performances of the song helped the notes come through more clearly. (I say "live" because it was evident most of these performances were just Weezer pretending to play along to a prerecorded instrumental track that, for some reason, sounded clearer than the album version.)
