[Em] Morning breaks like porcelain [A]
across an eastern sky.
[B] I stare across an open field.
I sit and wonder why.
[Em] Why the world's so beautiful [F#] and how come it's so sad?
It's times like this I sure [B] do miss my [Em] dad.
My kids are playing music now that I don't understand.
They try to explain it like I explained [B] it just to him.
And [A] I shake my head when they come in wearing the latest fads.
[E] It's times like this I sure do miss my dad.
[A] And I think that it's the little things [Em] I think that I forgot.
[F#m] How I love to hear him sing.
[B] How I love to hear him talk.
[E] And if he was here I'd give him [A] everything we never had.
[F#]
It's times like this [B] I sure do miss my [E] dad.

So if [Em] you're out tonight [F#] and you're with your old man.
Reach across the seat and quietly take his [B] hand.
[E] Cause once he's gone he's gone for good [A] and you can't get him back.
[F#]
It's times like this [B] you sure will miss your [Em]
dad.
It's times like this [F#m] I sure do [B] miss my [E] dad.
[F#m]
Thanks so much [Em] everybody.
