Daddy Don't You Walk So Fast

G                                 Am
The love between the two of us was dying
G                                  Am
And it got so bad I knew I had to leave
G                       Em      Am                   D
But halfway down that highway when I turned around I saw
G                     C          G
My little daughter running after me
D7
Crying

G
Daddy, don't you walk so fast
C
Daddy, don't you walk so fast
G            D           C                   D
Daddy, slow down some 'cause you're makin' me run
G                D        G
Daddy, don't you walk so fast

G                                           Am
Now, it broke my heart to tell my little daughter
G                                      Am
That her daddy had to run to catch a train
G                     Em         Am                  D
She had no way of knowin' I was leavin' home for good
G                    C              G
I turned around and there she was again
         D7
As she said to me

G
Daddy, don't you walk so fast
C
Daddy, don't you walk so fast
G            D           C                   D
Daddy, slow down some 'cause you're makin' me run
G                D        G
Daddy, don't you walk so fast

G                                    Am
If only for the sake of my sweet daughter
G                                              Am
I just had to turn back home right there and then
G                          Em        Am                 D
And try to start a new life with the mother of my child
G                     C               G
I couldn't bear to hear those words again
            D7
She cried and said

G
Daddy, don't you walk so fast
(My daughter cried)
C
Daddy, don't you walk so fast
G            D           C                   D
Daddy, slow down some 'cause you're makin' me run
G                D        G
Daddy, don't you walk so fast

G            D           C                   D
Daddy, slow down some 'cause you're makin' me run
G                D        G
Daddy, don't you walk so fast
