Dave Loggins - My fathers fiddle

Country m^Dusic ^A was the b^Gackbone of his l^Dife Any song you ch^Aoose it, He’d play^G anything you^D liked. Most every e^Avening, You could f^Gind me by his s^Aide. Where I’d^Bm lend the third part^Em harmony to^A mom and dad’s duets. Unill l^Bmullabies hung f^Emrom my eyes and I w^Aandered off to bed.

And ^DI can see my m^Cother in this c^Gountry h^Aome I got a s^Dister and two b^Crothers all my o^Gwn And beli^Deve me family ^Cunity was e^Gver so st^Arong When I he^Dard my father’s^C fiddle^G play, Some g^Aood old country s^Dongs. (When my father’s^C fiddle^G played) Some g^Aood old country s^Dongs. (When my father’s^C fiddle^G played)

Country n^Deighbors,^A they say that h^Ge’s the best a^Dround To play their f^Aavorites At every F^Griday night hoe-d^Down, and late in the e^Avening With the n^Geighbors homeward b^Aound His c^Bmlosings were as c^Emustomary as t^Aurning out the lights A q^Bmuarter for my p^Emocket, a l^Aove song for his wife.

And ^DI can see my m^Cother in this c^Gountry h^Aome I got a s^Dister and two b^Crothers all my o^Gwn And beli^Deve me family ^Cunity was e^Gver so st^Arong When I he^Dard my father’s^C fiddle^G play, Some g^Aood old country s^Dongs. (When my father’s^C fiddle^G played) Some of those g^Aood old country s^Dongs. (When my father’s^C fiddle^G played)

^AAh, but w^Bmhere oh where has the t^F#mime gone? It’s been ^Gyears since my^A ears have been^Bm played upon. I heard the fiddler lost his t^Aune in some b^Gar room And his f^Aamily’s to another town, it must be^Bm lonesome Wishing ^Emall the lost and s^Aomehow find you now

And ^DI can see my moth^Cer, she li^Gves all al^Aone I got a s^Dister and two br^Cothers but they’re all ^Ggrown And beli^Deve me family ^Cunity was ^Gever so st^Arong When I he^Dard my father’s^C fiddle^G play some^A good old country^D songs.
