[Em]Every day my papa would work
[Am]To help to make ends meet
[B7]To see that we would eat
Keep those [B7]shoes upon my feet
[Em]Every night my papa would take
[Am]and Tuck me in my bed
[B7]Kiss me on my head
After [Em]all my prayers were said
[Em]Growing up with him was easy
[Am]Time just flew on by
The [B7] years began to fly
He aged [Em]and so did I
[C]I could [D]tell that [B7] mama wasn't [Em]well
[C]Papa knew and [D]deep down so did [G]she,
so did [B7]she
[C]When she [D]died, [B7]Papa broke down and [Em]cried
[C]All he said was, "[Am]God, why not take [B7]me?"
[Em]Every night he sat there sleepin'[Am]
In his walkin' chair
[B7]He never went upstairs
[Em]All because she wasn't there
[Em]Then one day my papa said
"Son, I'm [Am]proud the way you've grown
[B7]Make it on your own
Oh, I'll [Em]be ok alone"
[Em]Every time I kiss my children
[Am]PApa’swords ring true
Your [B7]children live through you
They'll [Em]grow and leave you, too
[Em]I remember every word
[Am]My papa used to say
[B7]I live that every day
[Em]He taught me well that way
[Em]Every night, my papa would take me
And [Am]tuck me in my bed
[B7]Kiss me on my head
After[Em]All my prayers were said
[Em]Every night, my papa would take me
And [Am]tuck me in my bed
[B7]Tuck me in my bed
[Em]All my prayers were said
