  One night a sleepy little boy knelt beside my bed

F
  He smiled and looked into my eyes

C
  And this is what he said

                                           D7
Daddy my daddy you've taught me lots today

         G7
So daddy my daddy teach me how to pray

C
  You brought me home a brand-new kite

                       C7
  And showed me how to fly it

F
  And there ain't no wonder kid who's

                        C
Dad can knock a ball so high

            F
I'd like to thank God for you

            C
But I don't know what to say

         D7    G7                    C
So daddy    my daddy teach me how to pray

C                                  C
  I had to turn and leave his room

            F
He began to cry

                 C                      F
I didn't want my boy to know but so did I

    C                                  D7
