[Verse 1]
[Em]Daddy,
Daddy, [D]come and [C]look
See what [D]I have found
[Em]A li[D#]ttle ways away fro[D]m here,
[C]while dig[Em]ging in [Baug]the ground.[G]
Come [D]away, [Bm]Melinda,
come and [F#m]close the door.
[G]It's nothing, [D]just a picture book
[F#m]they h[Gm]ad bef[G]ore the wa[Bm]r.[Em]
Daddy, [D]Daddy, come and [C]see.
Daddy, [D]come and look.
[Em]Why there's four o[D]r five
little Melinda girls
[C]inside [Em]my picture bo[G]ok.
Come [D]away [Bm]Melinda,
come and [F#m]close the [G]door.
There were lots [D]of little girls like you
[F#m]Before [G]they had the [Bm]war[Cm]
[Fm]Oh, dadd[Eb]y, daddy, come and see
[Db]Daddy, hurry[Eb], do[Fm]
Why there's someone
[Eb]in a pretty dress
[Db]She'll all grown [Fm]up like you,
won't you tell [Ab]me why
Come [Eb]away, Melinda,
[Cm]come and close[Gm] the door
[Ab]That someone [Eb]is your mommy
[Gm]right [Abm]before[Cm] the war[C][D#][Em]
[D#]Daddy, [D]daddy, tel[C]l me [Em]if you c[D]an
[Em]Why [D#]can't thing[Em]s be
[D]the way [C]they were
[Cm]Be f[D#]ore the war began
[Em][D#][Baug][G]
[D]Come with [Bm]me
Come and [F#m]close the door
[G]The answer lies [D]in [F#m]yesterday
Before they had the [Bm]war
