Dads Don't Die
Recorded by Nate Smith
Album: Single (2025)

(Non Capo)

(Verse 1)
(Am) You can (G)cover him in (F)flowers
(Am) And carve his (G)name into a stone (F)
(Am) Let your (G)brother have his (F)toolbox
(Am) And keep his (G)number in your (F) phone
Leave (Dm)tears on the bathroom floor
Cause he ain't (F)here anymore but

(Chorus)
Dads don't die (C)
They (C)still make you laugh, still (F)make you cry
(F)Still make you mad the (Am)day it dawns
That (G)you were wrong and he (F)was right
Dads don't die (C)
And neither does the love they (F)leave behind
That's the holy truth I (Am)hold on to
Until (G)I see you in the (F)next life
Where there's no pain (Dm)
No goodbyes (F)
And dads don't die (C) (F)

(Verse 2)
(Am) I see his (G)blue eyes in the mir-(F)ror
(Am) And in the (G)crooked way I (F)smile
(Am) And he'll be (G)with me in my (F)dreams
Pushing (F)me on a tire swing
(Am) Still making me (G)feel like I could (F)fly

(Chorus)
Dads don't die (C)
They (C)still make you laugh, still (F)make you cry
Still make you mad the (Am)day it dawns
That (G)you were wrong and he (F)was right
Dads don't die (C)
And neither does the love they (F)leave behind
That's the holy truth I (Am)hold on to
Until (G)I see you in the (F)next life
Where there's no pain (Dm)
No goodbyes (F)
And dads don't die

(Out-Chorus)
Dads don't die (C)
Even if they let you (F)down sometimes
There's gonna come a day you (Am)understand
That he was (G) just a man
And you (F)turned out alright
Dads don't die (C)
And neither does the love they (F)leave behind
That's the holy truth I (Am)hold on to
Until (G)I see you in the (F)next life
Where there's no pain (Dm)
No goodbyes (F)
And dads don't die (C) / / / |(F) / / / |
