To Daddy

G
Mama never seemed

To miss the finer things of life
                     G7            
If she did she never did say so to 
  D
daddy

She never wanted to be more

Than mother and a wife
                     D7            
If she did she never did say so to 
  G
daddy
G
The only thing that seemed

To be important in her life
                        G7      
Was to make our house a home and 
         C
make us happy

Mama never wanted
    G
Any more that what she had
       D             D7           
If she did she never did say so to
    G
 daddy
G
He often left her all alone

She didn't mind the staying home
                     G7            
If she did she never did say so to 
  D
daddy

And she never missed the flowers

And the cards he never sent her
                      D7           
If she did she never did say so to

Being took for granted

Was a thing that she accepted
                           G7      
And she didn't need those things to
            C
 make her happy

And she didn't seem to notice
     G
That he didn't kiss and hold her
       D              D7          
If she did she never did say so to

One morning we awoke

Just to find a note
That mama carefully wrote and left 
   D
to daddy
    C
And as we began to read it

Our ears could not believe it
The words that she had written there
    D
 to daddy
    G
She said the kids are older now

They don't need me very much
                            G7     
And I've gone in search for love I 
        C
need so badly

I have needed you so long
    G
But I just can't keep holding on

She never meant to come back home
       D             D7           
If she did she never did say so to
   C
 daddy
           G
Goodbye to daddy
