My Father chords by Audrey Auld

Intro:

G



Verse 1:
G
Know you were the angel
C                 G
Who played my lullabies
G
As I drifted off to sleep
D
In dreams of a child
C              D
Then I'd gently waken
G              C
To your softest words
G

And start the day filled with
D            G
The music I'd heard

Chorus:
C    D
Oh my Father
G               C
Your blood in my veins
      D
Oh my Father
G                C
You showed me the way
G                                D
To love and learn and be concerned
                  G   G
And never give up faith

Verse 2:
G
Now there comes a time
G
When one decides
C               G
The path he must take
G
And it isn't always easy
         D
When the ways separate
C                   D
I couldn't bear your leaving
G                 C
It hurt to see you sad
      G
But I know you'll always love me
             D           G
Cause you'll always be my dad

Chorus:
C    D
Oh my Father
G               C
Your blood in my veins
      D
Oh my Father
G                C
You showed me the way
G                                D
To love and learn and be concerned
                  G
And never give up faith

Instrumental:
G C G D C G C G D G

Verse 3:
G
Now we sit and read together
C                      G
Just breathing the same air
G
Now and then you'll read aloud
D
A part you want to share
C               D
Maybe we'll be walking
G                  C
You always lead the way
    G
Not worried if I'm keeping up
D                    G
You know I'll find my way

Chorus:
C    D
Oh my Father
G               C
Your blood in my veins
      D
Oh my Father
G                C
You showed me the way
G                                D
To love and learn and be concerned
                  G
And never give up faith

Outro:
D       G
Ooooh my Father
