Daddy's Old Fiddle Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D]

[Verse 1]
[D]Daddy's old fiddle was
a brand new treasure
Handed down from hand to hand
I used to go with him when I was just little
I was my daddy's biggest fan
Hey [Bm]diddle diddle, my
daddy's old fiddle
[D]Boy, he could play to beat the [Bm]band
He [D]played better than just a little
Known and loved throughout [A]the [D]land
Back when I [G]was just a [D]young 'un
I used to travel around [Bm]with [A]Dad
He [D]made a little money and
we [G]had a lot of [D]fun
And it was the best time
[A]I ever [D]had
[Bm]Daddy played every social function
Evil could have played with [A]Bill Monroe
[D]He [Bm]offered him a job,
but daddy wouldn't take it
Said he'd miss me too [A]much to [D]go home
My daddy [A]loved [D]me
Zooey, [G]zooey, [D]my daddy's [G]good[D]
Every square dance and
[G]every bar [D]supper
Even on the big elec[Bm]tion day
[A]People [D]would come from [G]miles [D]around
They didn't come to vote,
but to [A]hear him [D]play
Cot[Bm]ton -eyed Joe and Sally Gooden
Soldiers Joy and [A]Hasty Pud[D]din'
[Bm]A little boy blewin' out a horny hat
He didn't have nothin' [A]on my [D]dad
Say, chicken in the bread pan,
pickin' out dough
Daddy does a dog bite,
no child knows
Hey diddle diddle, my daddy's old fiddle
It roars and eggs throughout my [G]soul
[D]Oh, [C]ain't my [G]daddy [D]good?[G]
[D]Show them, [Asus4]daddy.[D][G][D]
[C][G][D][G][D][Asus4][D]
And when [Bm]they lay
When they laid my daddy [D]down,
my daddy down
And [G]I stood, and I stood above his

[Verse 2]
[D]
grave, above his grave
I took his [Bm]fiddle, took his fiddle in

[Verse 3]
my [D]hand,
in my hand

[Verse 4]
And I played [D]Amazing Grace
How [G]sweet [D]the sound
Daddy's old fiddle was a family treasure
Hand it down from hand to [Bm]hand
I [D]used to go with him when I was just a little
I was my daddy's [A]biggest fan
[D]All [Bm]day singin' dinner on the ground
[D]Wedding soon was the partys in [Bm]town
The [D]courthouse yard,
they spittin' eight with em
Daddy entertained him with
[A]his old [D]fiddle
Got nachos, shabby goods
Soldier's joy, hey shifty putty
Little boy grewin' that horn he
had
He didn't have nothin' [A]on my [D]dad
Daddy's old fiddle
Daddy's old [G]fiddle[D][C]
[G]Daddy's [D]old fiddle
Daddy's old [G]fiddle[D][A]
[D]Daddy's old fiddle
Daddy's old [G]fiddle[D][C][G]
[D]Daddy's old fiddle
[G]Roll[D]s and yanks throughout my soul
