Dave Gunning - Daddy's Beer
CAPO: 2nd Fret
I reCmember back when I was young Gon one Christmas AmEve
FMum and Dad Ctucked us in and we Fdrifted off to Gsleep
CSometime through that snowy night old GSaint Nick did apAmpear
To Ffill our house with Cpresents and Glots of Christmas Ccheer
But Ammorning came and poor old dad, Ghe just stayed in Cbed
FFace down in the Cpillow and Dmthat's what Mommy Gsaid
CDaddy's really sick about what GSanta did this Amyear
He didn't Feat the milk and Ccookies, but he Gdrank all Daddy's Cbeer
INTERLUDE:   F    C    G  C  
My sister got a tambourine and Gplayed it pretty Amwell
FMe, I got a Cfire truck with a Fshiny silver Gbell
Little Cbrother got a cap gun with a Grealistic Amsound
FShooting all the Cbad guys to Gsave our little Ctown
But Ampoor old dad he couldn't move, we Gthought that he was Cdead
FGroaning like a Cgrizzly, Dmcovering his Ghead
CDaddy's really sick about what GSanta did this Amyear
He didn't Feat the milk and Ccookies, but he Gdrank all Daddy's Cbeer
INTERLUDE:   F    C    G  C  
Mum finally took her chance to Gget Dad on his Amfeet
She Fwanted him to Chelp us out Fwith the Christmas Gbeast
But as he Ctried to stuff the turkey, he turned Gwhite just like a Amghost
Still Fsad about what CSanta did, Glast night I supCpose
Poor AmDad was feeling terrible aGbout the man in Cred
FHow could Santa Cdo this, does he Dmdrink and drive his Gsled?
But CDaddy's really sick about what GSanta did this Amyear
He didn't Feat the milk and Ccookies, but he Gdrank all Daddy's Cbeer
Now I know you might not Amall beAblieve what GSanta did this Cyear
He didn't Feat the milk and Ccookies, but he Dmdrank all GDaddy's Cbeer
