[Intro] C Bm Am C F G C G [Verse 1]
C                   E7
I got a day without nothing to do

      F                    C    C
And a do not disturb on my door

F                       C               Am7
I sorta looked for some mess that she'd made

       D7                        G     G
Or her sweet little socks on the floor
[Verse 2]
    C                          E7
But all that she left here was too many rooms

    F                      C     C
And just enough silence to break

G
And I can't look at her picture right now

                       C    G* Am* G*
Time's about all I can take
[Verse 3]
C                         E7
Last night I sewed up her toys that were torn

F                            C
  And packed her suitcase again

F                          C          Am
She looked so sweet as she lay there asleep

D7                     G    G
Smiling and holding my hand
[Verse 4]
C                        E7
  We didn't talk all the way to the plane

F                          C   C
  But she's too big now to cry

G                                     G7
Then when I kissed her she held me so tight

                        C
I couldn't tell her goodbye
[Chorus]
         F                    C
She said I wish that we lived together again

G          G7        C    C
It gets so lonesome apart

F                    C
I'm missing somebody all of the time

G                      C     C
Daddy it's breaking my heart
[Solo] | F | F | C | Am | D7 | | D7 | G | G | C [Verse 5]
C                          E7
  It's not so bad out here living alone

F                       C   C
  Comfort's a stranger away

F                           C            Am7
  And there's a freedom you find on your own

D7                              G7   G7
   That's nearly worth what you pay
[Verse 6]
C                           E7
It's just a shame she still wants us to be

F                         C    C
  All that we seemed to before

G                                   G7
But we can't blame her for making believe

                      C
Something we don't anymore
[Chorus]
         F                    C
She said I wish that we lived together again

G          G7        C    C
It gets so lonesome apart

F                    C
I'm missing somebody all of the time

G                      C     C  G  G  C  C
Daddy it's breaking my heart
