[C]
I remember daddy's hands [G] holding silently in prayer
[A] And reaching [F] out to hold me [C] when I had a [G] nightmare
You [C] could read quite a story [G] in the calluses and lines
[F] Years of [C] work and worry [G] had left their [C] mark behind
I remember daddy's hands [G] how they held my mama tight
[Am] And had in [F] my back [C] for something [G] done right
[C] There are things that I've forgotten [G] that I loved about the man
[F] But I'll [C] always remember [G] the love in [C] daddy's hands
Daddy's hands were [F] soft and kind when [C] I was crying
[Em] Daddy's [Am] hands were [F] hard as steel when [G] I'd done wrong
[C] Daddy's hands weren't always gentle [F] but I come to [D] understand
[C] There was [F] [G] always love in [C] daddy's hands
I [F] [C] [G] [C]
remember daddy's hands [G] working till they bled
[Am] [F] Sacrificed themselves just [C] to keep us [G] all [Em] fair
[C] If I could do things over [G] I'd live my life again
[C] And never take for granted [G] the love in [C] daddy's hands
Daddy's hands were [F] soft and kind when [C] I was crying
[Em] Daddy's [Am] hands were [F] hard as steel when [G] I'd done wrong
[C] Daddy's hands weren't always gentle [F] but I come to [D] understand
[C] There was [F] [C] always love in daddy's hands
Daddy's hands were [Gm] soft and kind when [C] I was crying
[Em] Daddy's hands [Am] were hard as steel when [Dm] I'd done [G]
wrong
[C] Daddy's hands weren't always gentle [F] but I come to [D] understand
[C] There was always love [G] in [C] daddy's hands
