(D) There's two nails in the wall 
Above the (G) door in the hall 
Where (D) Dad's old fiddle hung for twenty (A7) years 
I (D) recall as just a boy 
How my (G) heart would beat with joy 
When (D) Daddy would play the (A7) song I loved to (D) hear: 
 
And Daddy would (G) play: - Fiddle ... 
 
Daddy never left us any will 
Tellin' us what he'd give 
But ev'rybody knew his fiddle was mine 
But the fiddle was all he left 
So I had to teach myself 
And I bet I played his song a million times: 
 
And I would play: - Fiddle ... 
 
Well, if Dad could see me now 
Oh, I know that he'd be proud 
To hear his old fiddle play once again 
But mayble it won't be long 
'Til I join him in a song 
And together we play this song once again: 
 
And then we'll play: - Fiddle ...
