To Daddy - Lyrics Chords

[Ab] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Eb] _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _
Mama never seemed to miss the finer things in life
If she did, she never did say [Eb] so to Daddy
She never wanted to be more than mother and a wife
If she did, she never did say [Ab] so to Daddy
The only things that seemed to be important in her life
Was to make our house a home and [Db] make us happy _ _
Mama never wanted [Ab] any more than what she had
[Eb] If she did, she never did say [Ab] so to Daddy
He often left her all alone, she didn't mind staying home
If she did, she never did say [Eb] so to Daddy _
And she never missed the flowers and the gifts he never gave her
If she did, she never did say [Ab] so to Daddy _ _
Being took for granted was a thing that she accepted
And she didn't need those things to [Db] make her happy
She didn't even seem to notice [Ab] that he didn't kiss and hold her
[Eb] If she did, she never did say [Ab] so to Daddy
One [Db] morning we awoke just to find a note
That Mama carefully wrote and [Eb] left to Daddy
[Ebm] And [Db] as he began to read it, our ears could not believe it
The words that she had written [Eb] there to Daddy
[Ab] She said, our kids are old enough and they don't need me very much
So I've gone in search for love I [Db] need so badly
I have needed you so long [Ab] but I just can't keep holding on
She never meant to come back [Eb] home
If she did, she never did say
