A boy walks past a window of a glowin' open sign
Bm G
Full of wooden toys and trucks and painted trains
D G D
Rings a bell up on the counter, hands a picture to the man
Bm A G
Of a kid beside a soldier smiling away
Bm A G
Said, "Sir, I've heard you can build anything"
D
Could you build me a daddy?
A
Strong as Superman
Bm A
Make him ten feet tall with a southern drawl
G
And a crooked smile if you can
D
'Cause I sure miss him
A
Maybe you could bring him back?
Bm A G
If I walked in with him, it'd sure make mama happy
D
If you could build me a daddy
There's an old Winchester rifle,
G D
back home hangin' on the wall
Bm G
He promised me he'd teach me how to aim
D
And he said when I got older,
G D
we could work on that curveball
Bm A G
I know he'd never wanna miss a game
Bm A G
So here's a little money that I've save
D
Could you build me a daddy?
A
Strong as Superman
Bm A
Make him ten feet tall with a southern drawl
G
And a crooked smile if you can
D
I sure miss him
A
Maybe you could bring him back?
Bm A G
If I walked in with him, it'd sure make mama happy
D
If you could build me a daddy
Bm
Give him a big heart,
A G
make his arms wide open
D A
I know he misses me, so mister, I was hopin'
D
You could build me a daddy
A
Strong as Superman
Bm A
Make him ten feet tall with a southern drawl
G
And a fishing pole in his hand
D
'Cause I sure miss him
A
Maybe you could bring him back?
Bm D G
If I walked in with him, it'd sure make my mama happy
D
If you could you build me a daddy
Could you build me a daddy?
