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