Marty Robbins – That Silver Haired Daddy Of Mine (Guitar)

     D            A            D        
In a vine covered shack in the mountains

                               A
bravely fighting the battle of time,

     D              D7               G
is a dear one who's weathered life's sorrows,

          D             A        D
it's that silver-haired daddy of mine.

   D          A           D            D7
If I could recall all the heartaches,

         G                      D
dear old Daddy, I caused you to bear,

   A                   D 
if I could erase those lines from your face,

    E              E7           A
and bring back the gold to your hair.

   D             A            D
If God would but grant me the power,

                               A
just to turn back the pages of time,

    D          D7      G
I'd give all I own, if I could but atone

        D             A        D
to that silver-haired daddy of mine.

      D             A              D
But I know it's too late, dear old Daddy,

                             A
to repay for the sorrows and care,

            D         D7         G
though dear Mother is waiting in heaven,

        D           A          D
just to comfort and solace you there.

   D          A           D            D7
If I could recall all the heartaches,

         G                      D
dear old Daddy, I caused you to bear,

   A                   D 
if I could erase those lines from your face,

    E              E7           A
and bring back the gold to your hair.

   D             A            D
If God would but grant me the power,

                               A
just to turn back the pages of time,

    D          D7      G
I'd give all I own, if I could but atone

        D             A        D
to that silver-haired daddy of mine.
