♫ Intro:

A E D D A

♫ Verse:
   A                                    D
I woke up this morning, the room felt empty and bare
       E                           D               A
As I turned to the closet, your clothes were not there
                                            D
As I walked into the kitchen, I found our little girl with a note
      E
As I read it to myself, the tears began to flow. And she said


♫ Chorus:
  A                 E
Please daddy don't cry that way
   D                              A
I know mommy left us, but that's o.k
                    E
Please daddy don't cry so hard
     D                                                     A
You don't know how it scares me and I wish that you would stop
                    E
Please daddy don't cry that way
        D                                                 A
'Cause I'm right here beside you and I promise that I'll stay

♫ Solo:
A E D A E D A


♫ Verse:
    A                          D
I looked down at her, through tear stained eyes
          E                         D      A
It's as though you were there in a tiny disguise
                                     D
She clutches her pajamas, with that soft little hand
     E
See all this that is happening, she can't quite understand

And she says


♫ Chorus:
  A                 E
Please daddy don't cry that way
   D                              A
I know mommy left us, but that's o.k
                    E
Please daddy don't cry so hard
     D                                                     A
You don't know how it scares me and I wish that you would stop
                    E
Please daddy don't cry that way
        D                                                 A
'Cause I'm right here beside you and I promise that I'll stay


♫ Verse:
       A                      D
I'm searching my heart, and trying to explain
          E                         D          A
But the words that come out, are swollen with pain
                                  D
She looks through my eyes, right down to my soul
 E
Sees all the hurt, that I can't control

And she says


♫ Chorus:
  A                 E
Please daddy don't cry that way
   D                              A
I know mommy left us, but that's o.k
                    E
Please daddy don't cry so hard
     D                                                     A
You don't know how it scares me and I wish that you would stop
                    E
Please daddy don't cry that way
        D                                                 A
'Cause I'm right here beside you and I promise that I'll stay


♫ Outro:
  A                 E
Please daddy don't cry that way
 D                                                 A
I'm right here beside you and I promise that I'll stay
