Daddy Won’t You Carry Me? CHORD CHART

©2016-17 Steve Eulberg

D

The nightly stand-off has begun

D D/E /F#

The sun is down and day is gone

G D

The cuckoo clock ticks on and on

A A7

And now his little mouth begins to yawn.

D

It’s time to go___ he knows

D D/E /F#

but his daddy wants his big boy to grow

G D

and walk on his two feet like a little man,

A A7

even though he knows he can:

D

Daddy won’t you carry me?

Em

up the stairs to my bed

A G

Let me lay my head upon

D G A

your strong shoulder

D G /F# Em

Daddy hold me close to your heart

A

Let me hear it beat

G D

and know the pulse of your love…

G A

Daddy won’t you carry me?

D D/C# Bm

Daddy won’t you carry me?

Em

Daddy won’t you carry me?

A D D7

upstairs to my dreams…

G A

Daddy won’t you carry me?

D D/C# Bm

Daddy won’t you carry me?

Em

Daddy won’t you carry me?

A G6

upstairs…

D

As eldest he longs to be grown

D

Be a help, not a burden, at home

G D

Whenever he can to do things on his own.

A

Baby sisters can’t yet do things all alone

D

It’s a fact and he knows this to be true

D

But there’s another one and this one is not new:

G D

Big boys need some reassurance, too

A A7

Turns out that is something Daddies can do… CHORUS

………

A Bm G

upstairs….

C G/B D

A nurse holds the receiver to his ear

C G/B D

He’s 5,000 miles away from here

C G/B D

The years have robbed him of his tongue

F C Bm7 Asus4 A

I speak for both in a dialogue of one…his time has come…

(as above)

Daddy won’t you carry him?…
