D G D 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" G 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 D If you could build me a daddy D G D There's an old Winchester rifle, back home hangin' on the wall Bm G He promised me he'd teach me how to aim D G D And he said when I got older, 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 saved G 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 D Bm A G Give him a big heart, make his arms wide open D A I know he misses me, so mister, I was hopin' A 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 A G If I walked in with him, it'd sure make my mama happy D D If you could you build me a daddy D Could you build me a daddy?
