This Tab By: Travis Tricky
Tuning: Standard, no capo
Tempo:Slowly (90 bpm)
Just a note before the music, this song is performed by Ray Sawyer
(for non-Hook fans,guy in the band with the eye patch) and is not
an official Dr. Hook song. Try to download this tune, it is an
incredibly powerful song, I hope I was able to do it justice
(I've only been for 6 months and this is my first tab ever).
However, it is Dr. Hook so it is not complicated but some of the
finer guitar details are lost in the complexity of the song - enjoy!

Intro - Dsus2 Asus4 (x2) (Instrumental)
-Verse 1-
Dsus2She'd snuggle andAsus4 talk to me
Dsus2Each night as I Asus4watched TV
Dsus2I'd teasingly Asus4call her chatter Dsus2box Asus4
Dsus2Then one night she saidAsus4 "don't be scared
Dsus2I see an angel on tAsus4he stairs
Dsus2Daddy, can you angle Asus4hear the angel tDsus2alk'"Asus4;
-Chorus- (chords are now strummed)
DOne more year of lollypops
AIce creams cones and soda pops
One more years of daddy's little gEirl
DOne more year of cracker jacks,
Abubble gum and sugar smacks.
One more year of daddy's little giErl
-Verse 2-
I took her in my arms upstairs
And as she said her night time prayers
I felt a fever burning in her head
She gave thanks for mom and me
And said I heard my angel speak
Daddy, this is what my angel said
-Chorus-
-Verse 3-
Her faith grew strong her body weak
And soon my frightened eyes could see
There was nothing on earth that I could do
And one year later, to the day
In her sleep, she slipped away
And I knew what she said and heard was true
-Chorus-
[slow down]
E (slow downstroke for effect)
One more year of Daddy's little girl
