  • Difficulty: Beginner 👶
Verse 1:

C                                  F         C
A child walked in a candy store in faded overalls
                                                       G7
Put a nickel on the counter said I think I'll spend it all
  C                               F                      C
I carried it three months or more you can tell it by the shine
    F                C             G7              C
Now I need a sack of candy like my daddy needs his wine

Chorus:

F                            C
Daddy and the wine goes back three years out of my eight
F                             C                         G7
In the old days we were happy dad worked hours long and late
C                              F                  C
Then momma disappeared one day and so did daddy's mind
    F               C            G7            C
And now it's me and daddy mostly daddy and the wine
Verse 2:
                                      F                 C
The child picked up the sack and then he wandered on outside
                                             G7
We put a roll of green among the jelly beans inside
    C                            F                    C
The clerk was broke and so was I we gave him our last dime
  F                  C          G7                 C
A stranger stole his mommy  now his daddy's on the wine

Chorus:

F                            C
Daddy and the wine goes back three years out of my eight
F                             C                         G7
In the old days we were happy dad worked hours long and late
C                              F                  C
Then momma disappeared one day and so did daddy's mind
    F               C            G7            C
And now it's me and daddy mostly daddy and the wine
