To Daddy-Emmylou Harris (written by Dolly Parton)
CAPO 2
GMama never seemed
To miss the finer things of life
If she did she never G7did say so to daDddy
She never wanted to be more
Than mother and a wife
If she did she never D7did say so to daGddy
GThe only thing that seemed
To be important in her life
Was to make our house a G7home and make us Chappy
Mama never wanted
Any Gmore that what she had
If she Ddid she never D7did say so to dadGdy
GHe often left her all alone
She didn't mind the staying home
If she did she never G7did say so to daDddy
And she never missed the flowers
And the cards he never sent her
If she did she never dD7id say so to daGddy
GBeing took for granted
Was a thing that she accepted
And she didn't need those tG7hings to make her haCppy
And she didn't seem to notice
That Ghe didn't kiss and hold her
If she Ddid she never dD7id say so to daGddy
One Cmorning we awoke
Just to find a note
That mama carefully wrote and left to Ddaddy
And Cas we began to read it
Our ears could not believe it
The words that she had written there to Ddaddy
She Gsaid the kids are older now
They don't need me very much
And I've gone in search of G7love I need so Cbadly
I have needed you so long
But GI just can't keep holding on
She never meant to come back home
DShe did she never D7did say so to daCddy
Goodbye to Gdaddy
