Judy Collins - Daddy You've Been On My Mind
CAPO: 3rd Fret
[Intro]
C Dm G D G C
[Verse 1]
G/B
Well, perhaps it's the colour of the sun cut flat
Am D
Uncovering, the crossroads I'm standing at
C Am F C
Or maybe it's the weather or something like that
D G C
Daddy, you've been on my mind
[Interlude]
C Dm G D G C
[Verse 2]
G/B
I don't mean trouble, please don't put me down or get upset
Am D
I am not pleading or saying, "I can't forget you"
C Am F C
I do not walk the floor, bowed down and bent, but yet
D G C
Daddy, you've been on my mind
[Interlude]
C Dm G D G C
[Verse 3]
G/B
Even though my mind is hazy and my thoughts they might be narrow
Am D
Where you've been don't bother me, or bring me down in sorrow
C Am F C
It don't even matter to me where you're waking up tomorrow
D G C
Daddy, you've been on my mind
[Interlude]
C Dm G D G C
[Verse 4]
G/B
I am not asking you to say words like "yes" or "no"
Am D
Please understand me, I've got no place for you to go
C Am F C
I'm just breathing to myself, pretending not that I don't know
D G C
Daddy, you've been on my mind
[Interlude]
C Dm G D G C
[Verse 5]
G/B
When you wake up in the morning, baby, look inside your mirror
Am D
You know I won't be next to you, you know I won't be near
C Am F C
I'd just be curious to know if you can see yourself as clear
D G C
As someone who has had you on her mind
[Outro]
C Dm G D G C
