Daddy, are you coming home tonight
G G/B C
And if you do, do you promise you will be alright
G
You won’t stumble up the stairs
C
Or fall over the front room chairs
G D G
And you and mommy won’t get in a fight
[Verse]
D
Daddy, when you stay out late, mommy cries sometimes
G C
She tells us she’s okay, but she keeps on crying
G
Her face is sad and mad
C
We wish she’d be more glad
G/B D G
Maybe you could make her laugh sometime
[Verse]
D
Daddy, if you have some time would you talk to me
G G/B C
And maybe if you look hard enough you’ll see
G
That I’m lonely deep inside
C Am7
But it’s okay 'cause I can hide it
G D G
And no one else will ever have to see
[Bridge]
C D G
And all the things I feel, I keep inside
C D G
And mommy says, “Don’t talk about it”, so I keep quiet
Am D C
I’ll be good, I promise, I’ll be good

Daddy, I heard you tell momma that it wasn’t true
G G/B C
All the things I know you did, you said you didn’t do
G
You said you didn’t wanna hear
C
That your children live in fear
G D G
Daddy, I’m telling now, they do
