Vs.1:
C
I asked my Dad how did he quit smokin'
Dm
He said, Son one day I saw you tokin on a
F C G
Half smoked cigarette, he left layin' by his tools
C
He said, I couldn't have been more than nine or ten
Dm
When I looked at him with a cat eating grin, and said
F G C
Look at me, Daddy, I'm the Marlboro man, just like you
Dm F
I did my best to step in every footprint Daddy made
Dm
I'd stretch my legs as far as they'd go
F G
Chase after him and say
Chorus:
C Dm
With you, Daddy, take me with you, Daddy
F C G
Everywhere you're going to, I just wanna be with you
C Dm
Right with you, Daddy, don't leave me, Daddy
F G
Don't you know that's right where I belong
Vs.2:
Six weeks shy of twenty-one
Daddy called and said I got some bad news son
Doctor says I ain't got very long
And I ain't told your Mama yet
I said, Daddy I'll be on the next flight home
That ain't the kind of news you ought to break alone
I didn't break down 'til I hung up the phone
I hate them cigarettes
He put his big old arms around me
The moment I stepped off the plane
He said, Son, you didn't have to come
All that I could say was I’m (Chorus)
Bridge:
Am F
Daddy wasn't conscious the last three days of his life
C G
But I stayed there right beside his bed
Am F
And I cried like a baby, but I knew he'd be alright
Dm C/E
When he smiled and whispered, my sweet lord
F G7
Reached out his hand and said (Chorus)
