[Intro]
G D/F# Em7 C
G D/F# Em7 C
[Verse 1]
G D/F# Em7
Used to be sober as a judge
C
Nothing but coffee in his cup
G D/F# Em7
Big ole smile when he'd wake me up
C
And take me to school
G G/B
When I got back we'd grab that ball
Em7 C
Hit a few home runs in that backyard
G D/F#
Truth be told never hit 'em that far
Em7 C
But he made me feel like I did
G D/F# Em7 C
Made that kid feel like a king
G D/F# Em7
With every pitch with every swing
[Chorus]
C G D/F#
But now daddy drinks whiskey doubles
Em7 C
Hear mama talking 'bout the troubles
G
That we're going through
D/F# Em7 C
Don't know what to do or how to fix it
G D/F#
Yeah daddy gets mad daddy slams doors
Em7 C
Daddy says things he never said before
G D/F# Em7
Yeah I wonder if he's too drunk to even miss me
C G D/F# Em7 C
Cause now daddy drinks whiskey
[Verse 2]
G D/F# Em7
And just the other day I called him up
C G
And told him about my brand new truck
D/F# Em7
And that his daughter thinks she's in love
C G
And she's only eighteen
G/B Em7
If he only knew all the things he missed
C G
Would he sell it all for another fifth
D/F# Em7
Would he let us drown for another sip
[Chorus]
C G D/F#
Cause now daddy drinks whiskey doubles
Em7 C
Hear mama talking 'bout the troubles
G
That we're going through
D/F# Em7 C
Don't know what to do or how to fix it
G D/F#
Yeah daddy gets mad daddy slams doors
Em7 C
Daddy says things he never said before
G D/F# Em7
Yeah I wonder if he's too drunk to even miss me
C G D/F# Em7 C
Cause now daddy drinks whiskey
G
And daddy drinks whiskey
[Bridge]
D/F#
Straight
Em7
Daddy won't man up
C G
And say that he did wrong
D/F#
Gonna come home
Em7 C
Yeah I know he ain't
G D/F# Em7 C
Cause daddy drinks whiskey
[Out-Chorus]
G D/F#
And daddy drinks whiskey doubles
Em7 C
Hear mama talking 'bout the troubles
G
That we're going through
D/F# Em7
Don't know what to do or how to fix it
C G D/F#
Yeah daddy gets mad daddy slams doors

Daddy says things he never said before
