G** D** G
In a vine covered shack in the mountains,
G D
bravely fighting the battle of time,
G C
there's a dear one who's weathered life sorrows,
G** D** G
it's that silver haired daddy of mine.
[Part 2]
G G
If I could recall all the heartaches,
C G
dear old daddy, I've caused you to bear;
D G** E7**
if I could erase those lines from your face

and bring back the gold to your hair.
[Part 3]
G** D** G
If God would but grant me the power,
G D
just to turn back the pages of time;
G** G** C
I would give all I own, if I could but atone
G** D** G
to that silver haired daddy of mine.
