I am dreaming, tonight, of an old southern town
D7 G
And the best friend that I ever had
C G
For I've grown so weary of roaming around
A D D7
And I'm going home to my Dad
G D
Your hair has turned to silver
D7 G
And I know you're failing too
C G
Daddy, dear, oh, Daddy
A A7 D D7
I'm coming back to you
G D
You made my childhood happy
C B
But still I longed to roam
C G Em
I've had my way, but now I'll say
A D7 G
I long for you and for home
G C G D G

Dear Daddy, you shared all my sorrows and joys
D7 G
You tried hard to bring me up right
C G
I know you'll still be one of the boys
A A7 D D7
I'm starting back home tonight
G D
Your hair has turned to silver
D7 G
And I know you're failing too
C G
Daddy, dear, oh, Daddy
A A7 D D7
I'm coming back to you
G D
You made my childhood happy
C B
But still I longed to roam
C G Em
I've had my way, but now I'll say
A D7 G
I long for you and for home
C G Em
I've had my way, but now I'll say
A D7 G
I long for you and for home
