two couldn't do

Verse 4
G
Then one night Daddy died
and went to Heaven
And God came down to earth
A
G
and slipped away
I pretended not to notice
I'd been abandoned
But no-one sang sang
C
the night into the day
G
F
And later night time songs came
G
back again
But the singers don't compare
A
G
with those I knew
And I never figured out where
God and Daddy went
C
D
But there was nothing those two couldn't do
