D A D
[VERSE 1]
DAD
In a vine covered shack in the mountains
A
bravely fighting the battle of time,
D D7 G
is a dear one who's weathered life's sorrows,
D A D
it's that silver-haired daddy of mine.
[CHORUS]
D ADD7
If I could recall all the heartaches,
G D
dear old Daddy, I caused you to bear,
A D
if I could erase those lines from your face,
E E7A
and bring back the gold to your hair.
D AD
If God would but grant me the power,
A
just to turn back the pages of time,
D D7G
I'd give all I own, if I could but atone
D A D
to that silver-haired daddy of mine.
[VERSE 2]
D A D
But I know it's too late, dear old Daddy,
A
to repay for the sorrows and care,
D D7 G
though dear Mother is waiting in heaven,
DA D
just to comfort and solace you there.
[CHORUS]
D ADD7
If I could recall all the heartaches,
G D
dear old Daddy, I caused you to bear,
A D
if I could erase those lines from your face,
E E7A
and bring back the gold to your hair.
D AD
If God would but grant me the power,
A
just to turn back the pages of time,
D D7G
I'd give all I own, if I could but atone
D A D
to that silver-haired daddy of mine.
