Daddy's Little Girl
Written by Larry Mofle
© 2006

I thought I had put this up on the site when I wrote it
but I was mistaken – I do have a recording at 
http://www.countrytabs.com/osong/Larry_Mofle/Daddys_Little_Girl_860/

This is a true story...

       D                      G                 D
It was seven years ago when I left for the last time
    D                                  A
The fights and nights of loneliness, I let the ties unbind
     D                                   G             D 
When I pulled out the driveway, she came runnin' after me
  D                                 A                  D
A frightened look in her eyes and a tear roll down her cheek


Chorus: 
G                              D
Daddy, take me with you 'cause I don't wanna stay
G                                      D            A  
Is there something I can do that won't make you go away
  Bm                Bm/A                    G
I need your love, I need your hugs, I don't wanna be apart
  D                                A               D
I know I won't be with you, that's why I give this heart

I looked into her open hands and what did I see
A plastic little heart, that she handed me
It wasn't much to look at but it meant a lot to her
The tears welled in my eyes when she spoke these words

Chorus

Well it's been almost 8 years since that day and in my mind
That simple selfless gesture will live always in time
And when I wonder if I'm the Dad she needed me to be
I look over at the heart, the best things in life are free

Chorus
