Verse 1:
          C                   F
Daddy, I'm afraid, won't you stay a little while?
        Am                                  G
Keep me safe 'cause there's monsters right outside
                    C            F
Daddy, please don't go, I don't wanna be alone
            Am                                   G
'Cause the second that you're gone they're gonna know
         Am               G             F
Before he went to bed he grabbed my hand and said

Chorus:
               C
Just 'cause I'm leavin'
        F                 Am               G
It don't mean that I won't be right by your side
         C
When you need me
         F                  Am            G
And you can't see me in the middle of the night
               C                F
Just close your eyes and say a prayer
       Am                 G                   C
It's okay, I know you're scared when I'm not here
         F                G
But I'll always be right there
                F                      G      C F Am G
Even though I'm leavin', I ain't goin' nowhere


Verse 2:
              C               F
Dad, we'll be late, and Uncle Sam don't like to wait
             Am                                      G
He's got a big old plane that's gonna take me far away
               C                    F
I know I act tough, but there's a churnin' in my gut
         Am                                       G
'Cause I just can't call you up when things get rough
         Am               G            F
Before I left, he hugged my neck and said

                C
Just 'cause you're leavin'
        F                 Am               G
It don't mean that I won't be right by your side
         C
When you need me
         F                  Am            G
And you can't see me in the middle of the night
                C                F
Just close your eyes and say a prayer
      Am                 G                   C
It's okay, I know you're scared I might be here
         F                G
But I'll always be right there
F                 G                      C      F Am G
Even though you're leavin', I ain't goin' nowhere


Bridge:
            C                F
Daddy, I'm afraid, won't you stay a little while?
         Am                                   G
I never thought I'd see the day I had to say goodbye
                   C             F
Daddy, please don't go, I can't do this on my own
           Am                             G
There's no way that I can walk this road alone
      Am         G        F
Daddy grabbed my hand and said


Chorus:
             C
Just 'cause I'm leavin'
        F                 Am               G
It don't mean that I won't be right by your side
         C
When you need me
         F                  Am            G
And you can't see me in the middle of the night
                C                F
Just close your eyes and say a prayer
       Am                 G
It's okay, boy, I ain't scared
            C              F              G
I won't be here, but I'll always be right there
Am              F                  C           F Am
Even though I'm leavin', I ain't goin' nowhere
 G       C           F Am G C
I ain't goin' nowhere
