great classic. enjoy!
[F#] [F#]
In a vine covered shack in the mountains
[C#7]
Bravely fighting the battle of time
[F#] [B]
Is a dear one who's weathered life's sorrows
[F#] [C#7] [F#]
It's that silvered haired daddy of mine
[F#] [F#]
If I could recall all the heartaches
[B] [F#]
Dear old daddy I caused you to bear
[C#7] [F#]
If I could erase those lines from your face
[G#7] [C#7]
And bring back the gold to your hair
[F#] [F#]
If God would but grant me the power
[C#7]
To turn back the pages of time
[F#] [B]
I'd give all I own If I could but atone
[F#] [C#7] [F#]
To that silvered haired daddy of mine
[F#] [F#]
I know it's too late dear old daddy
[C#7]
To repay for the heartaches and care
[F#] [B]
But dear Mother is waiting in Heaven
[F#] [C#7] [F#]
Just to comfort and solace you there
