2 6 7 7 6 5 5 6
I woke up cryin’ late at night
4 -3 5 5 -3 4
When I was very young
-3 5 5 -5 6 5
I had dreamed my father
4 -3 5 5 -5 -5
Had passed away and gone
2 6 7 7 6 -5 5
My world revolved around him,
5 6 4 -3 5 5 -3 4 -3
I couldn’t lie there any – more
4 -3 5 -5 5 5 5 -5 6 5
So I made my way down the mirrored hall
4 -3 5 5 -5 -5
And tapped upon his door.
4 5 5 7 6 5 6 -6 6
And I said, “Daddy, I’m so afraid!
5 5 6 -5 5 5 5 6 -5 5
How will I go on with you gone that way?
5 5 6 7 7 6 5
Don’t want to cry anymore
5 5 -5 6 -6 -5
So may I stay with you?”
4 6 -5 5 5 -5 6
And he said, “That’s my job,
5 -5 6 6
That’s what I do
-6 -6 -6 6 -5 5 -5 6 7 5
Everything I do is because of you,
5 5 6 -5 7 7
To keep you safe with me
5 6 -5 5 5
That’s my job, you see.”
Verse 2:
Later we barely got along,
This teenage boy and he
Most of the fights it seems were over
Different dreams we each held for me
He wanted knowledge and learning,
I wanted to fly out west
Said, “I could make it out there,
If I just had the fare
I got half, will you loan me the rest?”
And I said, “Daddy, I’m so afraid
There’s no guarantee
In the plans I’ve made
And if I should fail
Who will pay my way back home?”
And he said, “That’s my job,
That’s what I do
Ev’rything I do is because of you to keep
You safe with me
That’s my job, you see.”
-7 -7 -7 7 7 7 6
Every person carves his spot
5 5 5 -5 6 6
And fills the hole with light
-5 -5 5 5 5 -5 6
And I pray someday I might
5 5 6 -5 -5
Light as bright as he.
Verse 3:
Woke up early one bright fall day
To read the tragic news
After all my travels, I settled down
Within a mile or two
I make my livin’ with words and rhymes
And all the tragedy
Should go into my head and out instead
As bits of poetry.
But I say, “Daddy I’m so afraid
How will I go on with you gone this way
How can I come up with a song to say,
“I love you.”
“That’s my job, that’s what I do
Ev’rything I do is because of you to
Keep you safe with me
That’s my job, you see.”
-6 -6 -6 6 -5 5 -5 6 7 5
Everything I do is because of you,
5 5 6 -5 7 7
To keep you safe with me.
