G7 C
Daddy will Santa Clause ever have to die
G7
Oh those words from my little girl they just nearly broke my heart
C
Since her mother died our world’s been torn apart
C7 F
And the tears filled my eyes till I could hardly see
G7 C
As I heard the words that Lisa said to me
G7
Daddy will Santa Clause ever have to die
C
Like my momma did when she left you and I
G7
Or will he live forever like the stars in the sky
C
Oh daddy will Santa Clause ever have to die
G7
I said now honey don’t you worry let your heart be full of cheer
C
Cause if you live a hundred Christmas’ Santa Clause will be near
C7 F
And as I sit down beside her it was such a painful thing
G7 C
Cause there was a lot of hurt for me to explain
Repeat #2
G7 C
Oh daddy will Santa Clause ever have to die
