Daddy

                     C Dm           C Dm

There's these little ones I know Haven't been around long to show

                     C G                  C

But I could write a separate novel for each one

                    C Dm            C Dm

From the day each one was born To the way they all have grown

        C          G   C

I will follow them Until their stories done

                    C     Dm C              Dm

They've had pretty much all they need I wouldn't pity them anything

              C         G C

With the exception of something that was lost

                    C Dm              C Dm

Just a little things all kids want When nobody else will stop

             C                       G C

And take care of you You know it's something can't be bought

=================CHORUS==================================

                C F                      C

They say daddy where did mommy go

               C           F C

Is there something we can do please let us know

Dm                                            C

Daddy When is mommy comin home

       G           F G C

Oh daddy why did mommy let us go

==========================================================

            C          F C

Can you tell me What am I supposed to say

        C                 G C

To a child Who wouldn't understand anyway

          Dm                                C

What do you tell your daughter at that age

                           G   F G C

When she starts changin And needs her mother to explain

                  C   F      C

So it's a neighbor friend That helps her through it all

       C                                 G C

And it's big brother That helps the baby when he falls

                 Dm                        C

When I'm at work I can't be everywhere at once

                 G      F G C

We pull together And do our best Hope it's enough

(Chorus) (harmonica over verses)

              C                    F C

Well we made it through Maybe someday she will see

           C          G   C

There's more important things than being free

           Dm                              C

It's not fame Or what you have materially

            G           F G C

There's better things Like love and family

(Chorus)

(Repeat first 2 versus to end)
