Embrace Me, You Child from No Secrets - 1972
GAt night in bed
I heard God whisper lullDabyes G
Gmaj7While Daddy next door
Whistled whiskey tuAnes
And someGtimes when I wanted
They would harmDonize G
G7There was nothing those two couldn't do C
EmbrDace me you chiGld
You're a chiCld of mine
And I'm leavDing everything I Cam to yoGu
DGo chase the wiGld and nighCt time streets sang "Daddy"
And GDod sang &qCuot;Pray tBbhe devil doesn't getG to you"
GI thought together they mFust sing the moon aDway G
Gmaj7I thought that they must know each otherA well
GFor the magic that they mFade
When they pDlayed G
G7Wasn't lost between their Heaven and theCir Hell
EmbrDace me you chiGld
You're a chiCld of mine
And I'm leavDing everything I Cam to yoGu
DGo chase the wiGld and nighCt time streets sang "Daddy"
And GDod sang &qCuot;Pray tBbhe devil doesn't getG to you"
GThen one night Daddy died
And went to HeaDven
Gmaj7And God came down to earth
And slipped awAay
GI pretended not to know
I'd been abanDdoned G
G7But no one sang the night into the day C
GAnd later night time sonFgs came baDck agGain
But the sinGmaj7gers don't compare
With those I knAew
GAnd I never figured out
Where FGod and DaGddy went
G7But there was nothing those two couldn't doC
EmbrDace me you chiGld
You're a chiCld of mine
And I'm leavDing everything I Cam to yoGu
DGo chase the wiGld and nighCt time streets sang "Daddy"
And GDod sang &qCuot;Pray tBbhe devil doesn't getG to you"
DAH....G......D.....G. D G
