Intro: F# 

      F# 
In a vine covered shack in the mountains 
                                C# 
Bravely fighting the battle of time 
           F#                          B 
There's a dear one who's weathered my sorrows 
              F#            C#       F# 
This is that silver haired daddy of mine 

   F# 
If I could recall all the heartaches 
          B                         F# 
Dear old daddy, I've caused you to bear 
   C#                   F# 
If I could erase those lines from your face 
      G#                         C# 
And bring back the gold to your hair 

    F# 
If God would but grant me the power 
                                C# 
Just to turn back the pages of time 
     F#               B 
I'd give all I own if I could but atone 
         F#            C#       F# 
To that silver haired daddy of mine

   F# 
I know it's too late, dear old Daddy 
                              C# 
To repay for the sorrows and cares 
             F#                    B 
Though dear Mother is waiting in Heaven 
          F#         C#          F# 
Just to comfort and solace you there 

   F# 
If I could recall all the heartaches 
          B                         F# 
Dear old daddy, I've caused you to bear 
   C#                   F# 
If I could erase those lines from your face 
     G#                          C# 
And bring back the gold to your hair 

    F# 
If God would but grant me the power 
                                C# 
Just to turn back the pages of time 
     F#               B 
I'd give all I own if I could but atone 
         F#            C#       F# 
To that silver haired daddy of mine 

     F#               B 
I'd give all I own if I could but atone 
         F#            C#       F# 
To that silver haired daddy of mine
