DADDY'S GIRL
Recorded by Red Sovine
Words and music by Glen Martin
CAPO: 1st Fret/KEY: F/PLAY: E
E
I recall the night ...
A E
That you came into this world
B7
I couldn't believe the doctor
A E
When he said, "It's a little girl."
I said, "Now Doc you must be wrong
A E
You see I want a boy."
A E
Then he laid you in my arms
B7 E
And my heart sang with joy. ...
CHORUS:
E
Daddy's Girl ... Daddy's Girl ...
A E
I'm the champ ... of Daddy's world ...
B7
I know I'm Daddy's number one
A P
For he loves me like I was his son
NC E
(* * *)(Strum 3 times) Daddy's Girl.
I recall the day I took you to a baseball game
You brought along your baby doll and half its' baby things
We sat there a-playin' house, while the Dodgers played the Braves
And ev'ryone in the bleachers, looked at us as if to say.
CHORUS:
CHANGE TO F:
F Bb F
I recall the day I took you on a fishin' trip
C7 Bb F
You said, "Daddy won't that hook - hurt the fishes' lip?"
And you said if they don't get air
Bb F
Those things in the can will die
Bb F
So we turned the worms all loose
C7 F
And chased some butter- flies.
CHORUS:
F
Daddy's Girl ... Daddy's Girl ...
Bb F
I'm the champ ... of Daddy's world ...
C7
I know I'm Daddy's number one
Bb P
For he loves me like I was his son
NC F
(* * *)(Strum 3 times) Daddy's Girl.
I recall the day that your young man came to call
Seems like only yesterday, you swam and played football
But I know the time has come, that I must set you free
But no matter where you are, you know what you are to me.
CHORUS: (2X)
