Daddy, I'm afraid, won't you stay a little while?

Keep me safe 'cause there's monsters right outside

        C
Just 'cause I'm leavin'
    F         Am        G
It don't mean that I won't be right by your side

When you need me
     F         Am      G
And you can't see me in the middle of the night

Just close your eyes and say a prayer

He's got a big old plane that's gonna take me far away
        C          F
I know I act tough, but there's a churnin' in my gut
     Am                    G
'Cause I just can't call you up when things get rough
     Am        G      F
Before I left, he hugged my neck and said

There's no way that I can walk this road alone
   Am     G    F
Daddy grabbed my hand and said


Chorus:

And you can't see me in the middle of the night
        C        F

    Am         G
It's okay, boy, I ain't scared
