Verse 
                      D 
Daddy, are you coming home tonight 
           G          G/B              C 
And if you do, do you promise you will be alright 
          G 
You won’t stumble up the stairs 
        C 
Or fall over the front room chairs 
    G             D              G 
And you and mommy won’t get in a fight 

Verse 
                                     D 
Daddy, when you stay out late, mommy cries sometimes 
    G                            C 
She tells us she’s okay, but she keeps on crying 
    G 
Her face is sad and mad 
   C 
We wish she’d be more glad 
G/B             D                  G 
Maybe you could make her laugh sometime 

Verse 
                                       D 
Daddy, if you have some time would you talk to me 
    G            G/B        C 
And maybe if you look hard enough you’ll see 
         G 
That I’m lonely deep inside 
          C                Am7 
But it’s okay 'cause I can hide it 
    G                D            G 
And no one else will ever have to see 

Bridge 
    C                D       G 
And all the things I feel, I keep inside 
    C                  D                  G 
And mommy says, “Don’t talk about it”, so I keep quiet 
        Am      D                C 
I’ll be good, I promise, I’ll be good

Verse 
                                      D 
Daddy, I heard you tell momma that it wasn’t true 
        G                 G/B               C 
All the things I know you did, you said you didn’t do 
             G 
You said you didn’t wanna hear 
          C 
That your children live in fear 
G          D                 G 
Daddy, I’m telling now, they do

Daddy, are you coming home tonight 
           G          G/B              C 
And if you do, do you promise you will be alright 
          G 
You won’t stumble up the stairs 
        C 
Or fall over the front room chairs 
    G             D              G 
And you and mommy won’t get in a fight
