I want a pardon for daddy Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][A][D][G]

[Verse 1]
[G]A dear little
girl stood there [D]crying
By an old gloomy prison [G]wall
The warden so kind heard her [D]sighing
As you [A]listen to her [D]call
[G]I want a pardon for d[D]addy
For mother is lonely and [G]sad
I know he'll go straight if
you'll [D]open the gate
For [A]daddy was all that we [D]had
Last night while mother was [G]praying
I [A]prayed to the angels [D]above
[G]I want a pardon for d[D]addy
To [A]bring back the [D]daddy we [G]love,
she said she had come for her [D]daddy, but the warden
just bowed his [G]head, for tears in his eyes quickly [D]started,
as [A]these words to him she [D]said,
I [G]want a pardon for [D]daddy,
for mother is lonely and [G]sad.
I know you'll go straight if you'll [D]open the gate,
for [A]daddy was all that we [D]had.
Last night while mother was [G]praying,
I [A]prayed to the angels [D]above.
[G]I want to pardon for d[D]addy,
to [A]bring back the [D]daddy we [G]love.
you
