Chords with lyrics

Verse:
      D MajorD
He put his arms around her shoulder and with a voice that sounded older
     D MajorD             A augmentedA
He said, "Mom, I got something on my mind
A augmentedA
I don't wanna bother you but I sure need to talk to you
A augmentedA             D MajorD
If you can only spare the time
  D MajorD
And Mom I hope you understand how much I love and need you
   D7D7                  G+G
And I don't want you to take this the wrong way
  D MajorD                 A augmentedA
But don't you think I'm old enough and big enough and strong enough
  A augmentedA              D MajorD
To play the games that Daddies play?

Verse:
D MajorD
My friend Billy Parker's dad came by today to see me
    D MajorD            A augmentedA
And he wondered if I'd like to go
   A augmentedA
with him and Billy on a hike and maybe camp out overnight
  A augmentedA                D MajorD
the way I've seen 'em do in picture shows
  D MajorD
And there's one thing I'd like to do and maybe if I ask him to
   D7D7             G+G
He'd sit and talk with me man to man
   D MajorD             A augmentedA
We'd only be gone overnight and I could find out what it's like
  A augmentedA              D MajorD
to play the games that Daddies play

Verse:
Key Change
  E MajorE
She quickly turned to hide the tears from her son of seven years
  E MajorE                 B7B7
He didn't know she'd read between the lines
   B7B7
He'd never really known his dad and although he'd never ask
  B7B7              E MajorE
She knew exactly what was on his mind
  E MajorE
She searched her mind in desperation, six long years of separation
E7E7                  A augmentedA
Dimmed the words she knew she had to say
 E MajorE                B7B7
I hope you're never big enough or old enough or bold enough
  B7B7             E MajorE
To play the games that Daddies play

 B7B7
I know you need and want his love but, Son, you're the victim of
 B7B7                E MajorE
Another kind of game that Daddies play
