Then he pains that he lost her.


Daisy A Day

      G                                                 G7
He remembers the first time he met ‘er
          C                                         G
He remembers the first thing she said
         C                                       G
He remembers the first time he held her
              A7                                      D7
And the night that she came to his bed
 
         G                                              G7
He remembers her sweet way of singin’
C                                         G   
Honey has somethin’ gone wrong?
         C                                      G
He remembers the fun and the teasin’
             A7                                    D7
And the reason he wrote ‘er this song
 
     G                                    G7
I’ll give you a daisy a day, dear
     C                           G
I’ll give you a daisy a day
     C                          G       E7   Am
I’ll love you until the rivers run still
             C                     G7                C
And the four winds we know blow away

         G                                                           G7 
They would walk down the street in the evenin’
C                                                      G
And for years I would see them go by
C                                                           G
And their love that was more than the clothes that they wore
                A7                                     D7
Could be seen in the gleam of their eye

 G                                               G7
As a kid they would take me for candy
C                                        G
And I loved to go taggin’ along
C                                                               G
We’d hold hands while we walked to the corner
              A7                                    D7
And the old man would sing ‘er his song

 
     G                                    G7
I’ll give you a daisy a day, dear
     C                           G
I’ll give you a daisy a day
     C                          G       E7   Am
I’ll love you until the rivers run still
             C                     G7                C
And the four winds we know blow away

G                                                                G7  
Now he walks down the street in the evenin’
C                                               G
And he stops by the old candy store
C                                               G
And I somehow believe he’s believin’
        A7                               D7
He’s holdin’ ‘er hand like before
 
G                                                      G7
For he feels all her love walkin’ with him
C                                                          G
And he smiles at the things she might say
C                                                    G
Then the old man walks up to the hilltop
       A7                            D7
And gives her a daisy a day
 

     G                                    G7
I’ll give you a daisy a day, dear
     C                           G
I’ll give you a daisy a day
     C                          G       E7   Am
I’ll love you until the rivers run still
             C                     G7                C
And the four winds we know blow away
