[F#] [C#]
[F#] [C#]
[A#m] [D#m] [C#]
[A#m] [C#]
There's a man in my house, [A#m] big and strong.
[C#]
Goes to [Fm] work each day, [A#m] stays all day long.
[C#]
Comes home each night, [A#m] tired and beat.
[C#] Sit down at the dinner table, [A#m] has a fight to eat.
[Fm]
Never a frown, [D#m] always a smile.
[Fm] When he says to me, [D#m] how's my child?
[Fm] Said I been studying hard all [D#m] day in school.
[Fm] Tried very hard to understand [F#] the golden rule.
I think [C#] I'll call him father.
[D#m] Think I'll call him [C#]
love.
[A#m] I've got to call [C#] him father.
[D#m] I think I'll call this [C#] man love, yes I will.
[A#m] [C#]
Education is a thing [A#m] you want to complete.
[C#]
Without it, [Fm] sunlight [A#m] ain't very sweet.
[C#]
Love [G#] that man, [A#m] and I don't know why.
This [G#] step I need is death, [A#m] for the day I die.
[Fm]
My mother loves him, [D#m] I can tell.
By the [Fm] way she looks at him, she holds [D#m] my sister nail.
[Fm]
Heard her say just the [D#m] other day,
that [Fm] hadn't been for him, she [F#] could have found a way.
I think I'll [C#] call him father.
[F#] Think I'll call him [C#]
love.
[F#] I'm going to call him [C#]
father.
[D#m] I'm going to call this [C#] man love, yes I will.
[Em] [D]
Our little old man [Bm] got killed in the war.
[D] She knows she had [Bm] seven kids.
I wouldn't have got very far.
[D]
Heard [F#m] her say [G] she'd never love again.
[D] But there he [F#m] stood with [G] that big white grin.
[F#m]
He married my mother, [Em] and he took us in.
Now [F#m] we belong to the man with [G] that big white grin.
[D] I think I'll call him [Bm] father.
[Em] Think I'll call him [D]
love.
[G] I'm going to call him [D]
father.
[G] I'm going to call this [D] man love, yes I [Bm] will.
[Em] She's been [D] so good to me.
[F#m] [G] I'm going to call [D] him daddy.
[G] I'm going to call him [D]
father.
[G] I'm going to call him [D] love, yes I will.
