| Song: |
Adapted from Tex Bonnet's reproduction of this folk song, as collected
in the Paradise Valey, Nevada Folklife Project.
4 -4 5 5 5 5 -4 5 -4 4
In a vine-covered shack in the mountains,
3 4 5 4 5 6 -5 5 -4
Bravely fighting the battle of time,
4 -4 5 4 3 -3 -4 5 -5 5
Lies a dear one whose weather lines battle--
5 5 5 -4 5 -5 5 -4 4
It's that silver haired daddy of mine.
-3 -4 -4 -4 5 -4 5 -4 4
If I could recall all the heartaches,
3 4 5 4 5 6 -5 5 -4
Dear old Daddy, I've caused you to bear,
3 4 4 -4 5 4 4 -4 5 -5
If I could erase those lines from your face
-4 5 5 6 -6 6 -6 6
And bring back the gold to your hair.
5 5 5 5 5 5 -4 5 -4 4
Oh, if God would but grant me the power
3 4 5 4 5 6 -5 5 -4
Just to turn back the pages of time,
5 5 6 5 -4 4 4 -4 4 4 3 4
I'd give all that I own, if I could but atone
4 -4 5 -4 5 -5 5 -4 4
To that silver haired daddy of mine.
