Dear Ol' Dad Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[A]Come now and listen babe
[C]I gotta reason why I[G] behave
[A]Like a child with a light in eyes
Running na[C]ked on a cold win[D]ter [E]night
[A]I am like a pigeon that is spreading
It's wings [C]to fly away to bet[G]ter things
[A]Like a hammer that has made
A dent in [C]every little single
cent [Dm]you've [E]spent[F]
Said oh [C]God

[Verse 2]
[A]you've got
to help me a little [F]bit[C]
[A]You've got to have a relief file
[Dm]for me[F][C][Bb][Dm][C][Dm]
[C]Now [Bb]I kn[Dm]ow I'[C]m a[A]lways right,
that's a
[C]Thought that never even
[G]crossed my mind
Don't [A]touch me there,
I've gotta be pure
[C]So smack that hand, and [Dm]read this [E]verse
[A]So I wrecked your life, [C]what [G]the heck
My [A]new found faith [C]will pay
[Dm]by check[D][Am][F][Dm][F]
This [E]life's [Am]took a [F]toll [Am]on
[C]my [Dm]soul[F][Dm][Am][F]
[Dm]So[F]

[Verse 3]
[Am][F][Dm][F]
[Dm][F][Am][F][Dm][F][E][Am][F]
[Dm]
[C]thi[Am]s is [C]me[A] and that's my song
And I guess [C]that you can see
that we don't [G]get along
[A]I've shut the doors on what we had
So [C]now she can sleep with her [Dm]dear ol' [E]dad
[A]My eyes are dry and my han[C]ds are[G] clean
[A]And I can't believe all the[C] thi[Dm]ngs I'v[E]e[F][C][A]
[F]see[C]n[A][Bb][Dm][F][C]
[Dm][C][Bb][Dm][C][Bb][Dm]
[C]Oh my [A]God![C]
