Intro: G - C - G - D - G

G                                 D
I remember Daddy?s hands, folded silently in prayer
    C                               G             D
And reaching out to hold me, when I had a nightmare
    G                                 D      
You could read quite a story, in the callouses and lines
C                 G             D               G
Years of work and worry had left their mark behind
G                                    D
I remember Daddy?s hands, how they held my Mama tight
     C                        G            D
And patted my back, for something done right
          G                                   D      
There are things that I?ve forgotten, that I loved about the man
          C          G        D                 G
But I?ll always remember the love in Daddy?s hands


                            C                  G
Daddy's hands were soft and kind when I was cryin?
         Em                   C                    D
Daddy?s hands, were hard as steel when I?d done wrong
          G              
Daddy?s hands, weren?t always gentle
           C            D
But I?ve come to understand
           G C    G        D       G
There was always love in Daddy?s hands


   G                          D  
I remember Daddy?s hands, working 'til they bled
     C                           G           D
Sacrificed unselfishly, just to keep us all fed
      D                         D
If I could do things over, I?d live my life again
     C                G          D               G
And never take for granted the love in Daddy?s hands



                            C                  G
Daddy's hands were soft and kind when I was cryin?
         Em                   C                    D
Daddy?s hands, were hard as steel when I?d done wrong
          G              
Daddy?s hands, weren?t always gentle
           C            D
But I?ve come to understand
           G C    G        D       G
There was always love in Daddy?s hands



                             C                 G
Daddy's hands were soft and kind when I was cryin?
         Em                   C                    D
Daddy?s hands, were hard as steel when I?d done wrong
          G              
Daddy?s hands, weren?t always gentle
           C            D
But I?ve come to understand
          G  C    G
There was always love .....
   D        G
In Daddy?s hands
