Lyrics

(D)Today I stumbled from my bed,

with (F#)thunder crashing in my head,

my (G)pillow still wet it from last night's (D)tears.

(C)And (D)as I think of giving up,

a voice inside my coffee cup kept (G)crying "but" will it be and ringing in my (C)ears.

Don't cry, (D)Daddy,

Daddy, please don't (Em)cry;

(A)Daddy, (G)you've still got me and (A)little Tommy;

(D)together we'll find a brandnew mommy.

Daddy, Daddy, please laugh again;

(A7)Daddy, ride us on your back again.

Oh, (G)(F#)(Em)Daddy, (A7)please don't (D)cry.

(D)Why are children always first to (F#)feel the pain and hurt the worst.

It's (G)true, but somehow it just don't seem (D)right.

(C)'Cause (D)ev'ry time I cry I know it hurts my little children so.

I (G)woning der, will it be and the ing same (C)tonight?

Don't cry, (D)Daddy,

Daddy, please don't (Em)cry;

(A)Daddy, (G)you've still got me and (A)little Tommy;

(D)together we'll find a brandnew mommy.

Daddy, Daddy, please laugh again;

(A7)Daddy, ride us on your back again.

Oh, (G)(F#)(Em)Daddy, (A7)please don't (D)cry.

(Dm7)Oh, (G)(F#)(Em)Daddy, (G)please (A7)don't (D)cry.
