Verse 1
G 
 (G major) Mama never seemed to miss
the finer things in life
D 
If she did, she never did say so to  (D major) Daddy
She never wanted to be more
than mother and a wife
G 
If she did, she never did say so to  (G major) Daddy
The only thing that seemed to
be important in her life
Was to make our house a home
C 
and make us  (C major) happy
Mama never wanted any more
G 
 (G major) than what she had
D 
G 
If she  (D major) did, she never did say so to  (G major) Daddy
He often left her all alone,
but she didn't mind a stayin' home
D 
G 
D 
 (D major) If she  (G major) did, she never did say so to  (D major) Daddy
And she never missed the flowers
and the cards he never sent her
G 
If she did, she never did say so to  (G major) Daddy
Being took for granted
was a thing that she accepted
And she didn't need those things
C 
to make her happy  (C major) 
And she didn't seem to notice
G 
that he  (G major) didn't kiss and hold her
D 
G 
If she  (D major) did, she never did say so to  (G major) Daddy
C 
One morn (C major) ing we awoke
just to find a note
D 
Mama carefully wrote and left to  (D major) Daddy
C 
And as  (C major) he began to read it
Our readers could not believe it
D 
Words she had written there to  (D major) Daddy
G 
She  (G major) said the kids are older now,
they don't need me very much
And I'm gonna search
C 
for love I need so  (C major) badly
I have needed you so long,
G 
 (G major) but I just can't keep holding on
She never meant to come back home,
D 
and she  (D major) did
C 
She never did say so to  (C major) Daddy
G 
D 
Goodbye Daddy!  (G major)  (D major) 
G 
 (G major)
