Jerry Jeff Walker - She Knows Her Daddy Sings AND Pickup Truck Song chords
Start Jamming...
[C] Jerry Jeff Walker and the Gonzo Compadre.
This [B] song I wrote for my daughter.
She's about four years old.
[C] I'd go off to play for people and my wife said,
when daddy leaves he goes to sing for people.
That's what he does.
And one night I forgot to call.
Now she'll be 15 on April 10th.
Seems like only yesterday I was in Chicago in that hotel room.
Sometimes [F] out here on this road
[G] Too late to call and I see [C] the telephone
My mind's [Am] a line [D] running [Dm] straight for home
[G]
Think I see her [C] sleeping soft and warm
She [Am] knows [D] her [Dm] daddy's safe
[G]
We know [C] all true love can bring
[B] [Am]
She thinks this world of [Dm] ours must be everything
[G]
Does she know [C] she's a precious thing?
[Am] Susan, you and [D] I, we've had ups and [Dm] downs
[G]
A singer's soul gets [C] lost playing one night down
We [A] made it through [D] with [Dm] the grace of love
[G]
To a little girl [C] tailor-made for us
[Am] She knows [Dm] her daddy's safe
[G]
We know [C] all true love can bring
[G] [Am]
She thinks this world of ours [Dm] must be everything
[G] Does she know [C] she's a precious thing?
[G] [Am] [Dm] [G]
[C] [G] [Am]
[D] [Dm] [G]
[C]
[Am] Two adults [Dm] lost in a world alone
[G]
Take their little love, [C] make a little home
The [Am] little hands that [D] brush your wavy [F] hair
[G]
Wave goodbye and [C] leave us standing there
She [Am] knows [Dm] her daddy's safe
[G]
We know [C] all true love can bring
[G] [Am]
She thinks this world of ours [Dm] must be everything
[G]
Does she know [C] she's a precious thing?
[G] [Am]
She thinks this world of ours [Dm] must be everything
Does [G]
she know [C] she's a precious thing?
[G]
[C] Yeah,
[E] [D]
you [G] used to look forward to [D] Saturdays
Me and my [A] grandfather would get [G] away
Without being a [E] pickup truck, just pulled [D] down
We had a couple [G] chores that we had to do
[D] Didn't [A] take long before we were [G] through
We'd [A] let the pickup truck just [D] wander around
[G] The figure of the tooth [A] county don
[D] Fell [A] away when he see [Bm] someone
[G] My grandpa would [Em] pick up the song as it rolled [G] along
[A] [G] The bus stopped [A] us without fail
[D] He'd speed [Bm] up and check out the [A] mail
[G] We never [A] took the same road twice on the [D] way back home
[G] [A] [D] [G]
[D] Spent a few years [G] out running free
[D] Spent two or three [A] in New York [G] City
Moved back to [A] Texas tired of [D] both of that and them
We'd go to Luke and [G] Buck on [D] Saturdays
Honda had [A] a way to run everyday
[G] He always made [A] me laugh when we rolled in the pickup [D] truck
[G] The figure of [A] the tooth county don
[D] Fell away [Bm] when he see someone
[G] Honda would pick [Em] up the song as [A] it rolled [G] along
[A] [G] The bus stopped us [A] without fail
[D] He'd speed [F#m] up and check [Bm] out the mail
[G] We never took the [A] same road twice [D] on the way back home
Well, [G]
[A] [D] [G] [A]
[D] me and my [G] grandpa and Honda too
[D] We really [A] missed things that we used to [G] do
Last [A] week I went out and bought me an old pickup [D] truck
Me [G] and the kids spent [D] Saturdays
We'd do [A] fun things in a simple way
[G] Then I'd start a day [A] with a ride in the [D] pickup truck
[G] The figure of the tooth [A] county don
[D] Fell [A] away when he see [Bm] someone
[G] The kids would pick [Em] up the song [A] as it rolled [G] [F#m] along
[A]
[G] The bus stopped us [A] without fail
We'd [C#m] get stamps and [Bm] check out the [A] mail
[G] We never took [A] the same road twice on the way [D] back home
[G] Don't you mess [A] with Texas, friend
[D] Don't you make me say it again
[G] [A] Have the funs get lost on the [D] way back home
[E]
