I used
F
to visit my
dad on the holidays
Couldn't wait to get out of that car
Dm
F
C
and see his smiling face
F
Even though him and mom
couldn't work it out
C
I always felt comfortable in his little place
Yeah, I felt safe
Am
G
F
The first night there, I'd cry for home
Am
G
And he'd get out his guitar
F
G
And every fear I had was gone
F
When my daddy played his old guitar
I'd watch his fingers dance
C
across the fretboard
Like I'd never seen before
F
So loud and clear, it caught my ear
And every song he'd play
C
left me wantin' more
F
Yeah, I just couldn't believe
G
the sound it made
F
C
F
G
When my daddy played
F
Well, a couple of years came and went
And I still cherish the time
C
we spent in Surry Hills
F
Nan cookin' away downstairs
A little boy sittin' with bushy
blonde hair
C
sayin', what can I do,
Nan, can I cook with
Am
G
When dad would take his guitar
F
from its case
Am
G
These memories are things
F
G
time will never erase
F
When my daddy played his old guitar
I'd watch his fingers dance
C
across the fretboard
Like I'd never seen before
F
So loud and clear, it caught my ear
And every song he'd play
C
left me wantin' more
F
Yeah, I just couldn't believe

the sound it made

When my daddy played

Mary's old guitar
G
has become my best friend
F

As I play across this country in the wind
C

Dm
And what I'd give to
C
F
be back there again
When my daddy played his old guitar
I'd watch his fingers dance
C
across the fretboard
Like I'd never seen before
F
So loud and clear it caught my ear
And every song he'd play
C
left me wanting more
F
Yeah, I just couldn't believe
G
the sound it made
F
When my daddy played,

Couldn't wait to get out of that car

and see his smiling face.
