[Intro]
C F/C Am G

[Verse 1]
          C                   F/C
Daddy, I'm afraid, won't you stay a little while?
        Am                                  G
Keep me safe 'cause there's monsters right outside
                    C            F/C
Daddy, please don't go, I don't wanna be alone
            Am                                    G
'Cause the second that you're gone they're gonna know
         Am               G             F/C
Before he went to bed he grabbed my hand and said




[Chorus]
               C
Just 'cause I'm leavin'
        F                 Am               G
It don't mean that I won't be right by your side
         C
When you need me
         F                  Am            G
And you can't see me in the middle of the night
               C                F
Just close your eyes and say a prayer
       Am                 G                   C
It's okay, I know you're scared when I'm not here
         F                G
But I'll always be right there
                F                      G      C F/C Am G
Even though I'm leavin', I ain't goin' nowhere


[Verse 2]
              C               F/C
Dad, we'll be late, and Uncle Sam don't like to wait
             Am                                     G
He's got a big old plane that's gonna take me far away
               C                    F/C
I know I act tough, but there's a churnin' in my gut
         Am                                        G
'Cause I just can't call you up when things get rough
         Am               G            F/C
Before I left, he hugged my neck and said



[Chorus]
                C
Just 'cause you're leavin'
        F/C                 Am               G
It don't mean that I won't be right by your side
         C
When you need me
         F/C                  Am            G
And you can't see me in the middle of the night
                C                F/C
Just close your eyes and say a prayer
      Am                 G                   C
It's okay, I know you're scared I might be here
         F/C                G
But I'll always be right there
                  F/C                      G      C F/C Am G C F/C Am G
Even though you're leavin', I ain't goin' nowhere


[Bridge]
            C                F/C
Daddy, I'm afraid, won't you stay a little while?
         Am                                    G
I never thought I'd see the day I had to say goodbye
                   C             F/C
Daddy, please don't go, I can't do this on my own
           Am                              G
There's no way that I can walk this road alone
      Am         G        F/C
Daddy grabbed my hand and said


[Chorus]
             C
Just 'cause I'm leavin'
        F/C                 Am               G
It don't mean that I won't be right by your side
         C
When you need me
         F/C                  Am            G
And you can't see me in the middle of the night
                C                F/C
Just close your eyes and say a prayer
       Am                 G
It's okay, boy, I ain't scared
            C              F/C              G
I won't be here, but I'll always be right there
                F/C                  G           C F/C
Even though I'm leavin', I ain't goin' nowhere
 F/C       G           C
I ain't goin' nowhere
