Intro: A D
A house, not a home
Was the picture Satan painted
G D
For sweet little sister and me
Our daddy would frown
While mother was praying
His heart was so hardened
A D
He would not believe
D7
In anger he'd swear
G D
His voice cold and loud
His Sundays were spent
A
Out with the gambling crowd
D
I've never seen my daddy
G D
Inside a house of god
For Satan held his hand
A D
Down the path of sin he trod
Not long ago
Our circle was broken
G D
When god called on mother one night
In a voice sweet and low
Her last words were spoken
Asking our daddy
A D
To raise her children right
D7
The angels rejoiced
G D
In heaven last night
I heard my daddy pray
A
"Dear god, make it right"
D
He was smiling and singing
G D
With tears in his eyes
While mother with the angels
A D
Rejoiced last night
