dads old fiddle
# DAD'S OLD FIDDLE Recorded by Merle Haggard Words and music by Glenn W. Martin [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 ...
