Chord/Tab song: Padre

Recorded by Marty Robbins

[D]The day that we wed, you blessed [F#m]us and said

[D]May Heaven bestow you grace.[G]

Here in this holy place, we [D]shared ou[A]r first embrace.[D]

[D]Our cottage was small but richer than all[F#m]

[D]the palaces of a king.[G]

Each night the birds would sing. Our hearts w[D]ere full of sp[A]ring.[D]

Chorus:
Padre, padre[D7][G]

What happened [D]to the love we knew?[A][D][A]

Pa [D] dre, pa [D7] d[G]re

In my grief I t[D]urn to yo[A]u[D]

Then he came along and sang her a song
And won her with sugared lies
He of the fiery eyes. Now its my heart that cries.
So I kneel and pray the hours away
And weary my heart has grown; wondering where love has flown
Counting my beads alone.

Repeat chorus.
