Tom: D Intr: D A D CHORUS: |D | | | Daddy Frank played the guitar and the french harp, | | |A | Sister played the ringing tambourine. | | | | Mama couldn't hear our pretty music, | | |D | She read our lips and helped the family sing. D That little band was all a part of living, A And our only means of living at the time; And it wasn't like no normal family combo, D Cause Daddy Frank the guitar man was blind. |G | |D | Frank and mama counted on each other; |G | |Bm | Their one and only weakness made them strong. |G | |D | Mama did the driving for the family, |Bm | |A | And Frank made a living with a song. |G | |D | Home was just a camp along the highway; |G | |Bm | A pick-up bed was where we bedded down. |G | |D | Don't ever once remember going hungry, |D G |D A |D |D
