G                         C
A year and a half may not seem like much time
        G                   D7
But its almost forever when you're only nine
    G                        C
Yes she still adores him and tears fill her eyes
       G             D7         G
As she clings to her pillow and cries

                          C
Daddy come home oh please daddy come home
      G                           D7
Sweet daddy are you out there somewhere all alone
    G                     C
Was mommy mean to you did I treat you wrong
G        D7         G
Daddy oh daddy come home

                       C
Down on the coast in a honeymoon sweet
          G                       D7
Someone's tossing and turning and trying to sleep
    G                         C
Was that just the wind in the pines cross the bay
     G           D7          G
Or a small voice from so far away
