Intro: G  Bm  C  D 

Verse 

   G                                  Bm 
My boss'll tell you that I've been to work all week on time 
    C                           G 
And I ain't had no liquor on my breath 
G                                 Bm 
Ain't no kind of secret I've been known to take a drink 
         C                              D 
And it's made me do some things that I regret 
 C                                 G 
Loretta said this ain't no kind of way to raise a family 
        C                                      D 
And one night she called it quits and called a cab 
             C                                       G 
She left the clothes out on the clothes line and the dishes in the sink 
     C                                     D 
So I guess she knows that she ain't comin' back 

G Bm But I just wanna see my kids, I just wanna hold my girls C D Heaven knows I ain't got much of nothin' else in this whole world G Bm I just wanna be around enough to know that they've been loved C D G I just wanna be the daddy my daddy never was
Instrumental: G Bm C D Verse G Bm Now lately she's been knowing this ol' boy she met in church C D And I can't say she's wrong for wantin' more G Bm I gave him the right to tell my wife that I can't come around C D The night I knocked a hole in her front door C G And Loretta took my keys and she made me wait outside C D But she didn't call the law she called a cab C G And as I pulled away I saw somethin' in her eyes C D So I reckon that she knows I ain't so bad
G Bm But I just wanna see my kids, I just wanna hold my girls C D Heaven knows I ain't got much of nothin' else in this whole world G Bm I just wanna be around enough to know that they've been loved C D G I just wanna be the daddy my daddy never was
Instrumental: G Bm C D Bridge G Bm My boss'll tell you that I've been to work all week on time C D (let ring) And I ain't had no liquor on my breath Outro: G Bm C D G
