C                       F             C
They were separated one year ago that day

                                   G7
The court had given him their only child

C                                  F                  C
When play time was all finished he climbed on daddy's knee

                        G7                C
And said with teardrops showing through a smile


                    F      C
Daddy when is mommy coming home

                          G7
Each day you say it won't be very long

                           C
I always see you cry since mommy said goodbye

    D7                        G7
And went away and left us all alone


     C                       F       C
Each night I kneel beside my bed and then

                   D7               F
I always pray that she'll come back again

                           C            D7
I wonder if she knows that we're so all alone

              G7           C
Daddy when is mommy coming home


                    F      C
Daddy when is mommy coming home

                          G7
Each day you say it won't be very long

                           C
I always see you cry since mommy said goodbye

    D7                        G7
And went away and left us all alone


     C                       F       C
Each night I kneel beside my bed and then

                   D7               F
I always pray that she'll come back again

                           C            D7
I wonder if she knows that we're so all alone

              G7           C
