The Games That Daddies Play chords by Conway Twitty

Verse:
           D
He put his arms around her shoulder and with a voice that sounded older
          D                          A
He said, "Mom, I got something on my mind
A
I don't wanna bother you but I sure need to talk to you
A                         D
If you can only spare the time
    D
And Mom I hope you understand how much I love and need you
      D7                                    G
And I don't want you to take this the wrong way
    D                                  A
But don't you think I'm old enough and big enough and strong enough
   A                           D

Verse:
D
My friend Billy Parker's dad came by today to see me
       D                       A
And he wondered if I'd like to go
     A
with him and Billy on a hike and maybe camp out overnight
    A                               D
the way I've seen 'em do in picture shows
    D
And there's one thing I'd like to do and maybe if I ask him to
     D7                          G
He'd sit and talk with me man to man
     D                          A
We'd only be gone overnight and I could find out what it's like
   A                           D

Verse:
Key Change
    E
She quickly turned to hide the tears from her son of seven years
   E                                  B7
He didn't know she'd read between the lines
     B7
He'd never really known his dad and although he'd never ask
    B7                           E
She knew exactly what was on his mind
    E
She searched her mind in desperation, six long years of separation
E7                                   A
Dimmed the words she knew she had to say
  E                               B7
I hope you're never big enough or old enough or bold enough
   B7                          E

  B7
I know you need and want his love but, Son, you're the victim of
 B7                               E
