I put my daughter on my knee, and she says
"Daddy what's wrong?"
She whispers in my ear so sweet
M M
You know what she says? She says
Chorus:
More simple here, just one bar with C then three with Dm. But Dmadd9 also comes in some times.
C, Dm, Dmadd9
"Daddy you're a fool to cry
You're a fool to cry
And it makes me wonder why."
Second verse:
The chord pattern changes a bit. The F bar is a random mix of F (chord), Fadd9 and
F6, the A# bar goes as A#6, A#7M A#6, A#7M.
You know, I got a woman
M M
And she lives in the poor part of town
and I go see her sometimes
M M
And we make love, so fine
M M
I put my head on her shoulder
She says, "Tell me all your troubles."

You know what she says? She says
(Chorus)
"Daddy you're a fool to cry
You're a fool to cry
and it makes me wonder why."
