INTRO:
B -10--9--7--5--5--3--2
VERSE 1:
[A]It won't [E]make the [A]papers, Like [A]some [C#m]reunions [D]do
There won't be many [A]people, Just [A]me and him and [E]you
[A]I made a [E]childhood [A]promise, You [A]laughed and [C#m]dried your [D]tears
I swore that I'd bring [A]Daddy home, And [E]tomorrow he'll be [A]here[E-D-A]
VERSE 2:
[A]I tracked him [E]down in [A]Denver, Where [A]he'd lived [C#m]all [D]alone
He was just another [A]drifter, With a [A]number on his [E]stone
[A]In his things I [E]found a [A]picture, Where his [A]hands had [C#m]worn it [D]thin
A smiling bride was [A]by his side, Now you'll [E]be this way [A]again[E-D-A]
CHORUS:
We'll have that [D]family reunion
The one you dreamed of until the [C#m]day [D]you [A]died
But [E]this time Mama he's gonna stay
Forever by your [A]side
INSTR:

VERSE 3:
I never really knew him, I was no more than a kid
He must have been worth something, If someone loved him like you did
It was hard without a man there, You did his part too
I watched your dreams fade, Through the years
But Mama this one Is coming true
CHORUS:
We'll have that [D]family reunion
The one you dreamed of until the [C#m]day [D]you [A]died
But [E]this time Mama he's gonna stay
Forever by your [A]side
[E]This time Mama he's gonna stay
Forever by your [A]side [E][D][A]
