   A                                    D
I woke up this morning, the room felt empty and bare

       E                           D               A
As I turned to the closet, your clothes were not there

                                            D
As I walked into the kitchen, I found our little girl with a note

      E
As I read it to myself, the tears began to flow. And she said
[Chorus]
  A                 E
Please daddy don't cry that way

   D                              A
I know mommy left us, but that's o.k

                    E
Please daddy don't cry so hard

     D                                                     A
You don't know how it scares me and I wish that you would stop

                    E
Please daddy don't cry that way

        D                                                 A
'Cause I'm right here beside you and I promise that I'll stay
[Solo] A E D A E D A [Verse]
    A                          D
I looked down at her, through tear stained eyes

          E                         D      A
It's as though you were there in a tiny disguise

                                     D
She clutches her pajamas, with that soft little hand

     E
See all this that is happening, she can't quite understand
And she says [Chorus]
  A                 E
Please daddy don't cry that way

   D                              A
I know mommy left us, but that's o.k

                    E
Please daddy don't cry so hard

     D                                                     A
You don't know how it scares me and I wish that you would stop

                    E
Please daddy don't cry that way

        D                                                 A
'Cause I'm right here beside you and I promise that I'll stay
[Verse]
       A                      D
I'm searching my heart, and trying to explain

          E                         D          A
But the words that come out, are swollen with pain

                                  D
She looks through my eyes, right down to my soul

 E
Sees all the hurt, that I can't control
And she says [Chorus]
  A                 E
Please daddy don't cry that way

   D                              A
I know mommy left us, but that's o.k

                    E
Please daddy don't cry so hard

     D                                                     A
You don't know how it scares me and I wish that you would stop

                    E
Please daddy don't cry that way

        D                                                 A
'Cause I'm right here beside you and I promise that I'll stay
[Outro]
  A                 E
Please daddy don't cry that way

 D                                                 A
I'm right here beside you and I promise that I'll stay
