David Allan Coe - Single Father guitar chord

David Allan Coe - Single Father

Capo 1

E

Latley I’ve been spendin’ lots of time with my kid

A

Tellin’ him stories, about the things that we did

E B7

When we were a family, such a long time ago

E

I’ve answered his questions, till I’m blue in the face

A

There’s so many things, time can’t erase

E B7

So I just tell him the truth

E

Cause he not to young to know.

Pre-Chorus:

A

Such is the life, of a Single Father

E

He says tell me dad, if it’s not too much bother

B7 E

Why it’s just you and me, living here in this home

A

I said I know there just two, when there ought to be three of us

E

Sharing this moments

B7

You know son I guess sometimes at night

E

I feel so alone.

Chorus:

A

Single Father

E

And part time mother

B7

When I’m not one

E

Then I’m the other

A

And I used to have

E

A full time lover

B7

Now I’m a Single Father

E

And a part time mother.

E

Lately I’ve been spendin’ lots of time with my boy

A

There’s no doubt about it, he’s my pride and joy

E B7

But someday he will grow up, and I won’t have him no more

E

There was so many I found hard to explain

A

So I just took him to McDonald’s, or bought him a little train

E B7 E

And we go put it together, on the living room floor.

Pre-Chorus:
