     (Play these chords like the intro riff of guitar 2)
      D
    Today I stumbled from my bed
         F#
    With thunder crashing in my head
       G
    My pillow still wet
                    D      C/D
    From last night tears
        D
    And as I think of giving up
      F#
    A voice inside my coffee-cup
         G
    Kept crying out
                      C        A
    And ringing in my ears


              D
    Don't cry daddy
                        Em      A
    Daddy, please don't cry
           G                       A
    Daddy, you've still got me and little Tommy
      D                   G
    Together we'll find a brand new mommy
    D
    Daddy, daddy, please laugh again
    A7
    Daddy ride us on your back again
        G   F#m  Em  A7           D
    Oh, dad------dy, please don't cry


    Play Intro riff.....


    D
    Why are children always first
       F#
    To feel the pain and hurt the worst
         G
    It's true, but somehow
                       D        C/D
    It just don't seem right
           D
    'Cause ev'ry time I cry I know
       F#
    It hurts my little children so
      G                            C       A
    I wonder will it be the same tonight


              D
    Don't cry daddy
                        Em      A
    Daddy, please don't cry
           G                       A
    Daddy, you've still got me and little Tommy
      D                   G
    Together we'll find a brand new mommy
    D
    Daddy, daddy, please laugh again
    A7
    Daddy ride us on your back again
        G   F#m  Em  A7           D      F/D
    Oh, dad------dy, please don't cry
        G   F#m  Em  A7           D
    Oh, dad------dy, please don't cry
