So Long Dad
Manfred Mann
[Intro] [Verse 1] My but it’s great To be back home again The streets are not much cleaner The quaint old hometown scenery Is quaint no more F Faug Bb Just older than before Go up the stairs and down the hallway To my daddy’s door [Pre-Chorus 1] Your son is home Dad and he’s found a girl And she’s the greatest girl in all the world I think you’ll like her Dad and I hope you do But if you don’t that’s alright too [Chorus 1] And what’s new Dad? What’s new Dad? I miss my good old dad [Verse 2] My but it’s great To be back home again We won’t be staying here Dad The smoke makes Jane’s eyes tear so bad And we can’t have that F Faug We’ll write you where we’re at Janie’s uncle owns a bank I think I’ll try my hand at that [Pre-Chorus 2] So come and see us Papa when you can There’ll always be a place for my old man Just drop by when it’s convenient to Be sure to call before you do [Chorus 2] And so long Dad So long Dad I miss my good old dad [Pre-Chorus 3] So come and see us Papa when you can There’ll always be a place for my old man Just drop by when it’s convenient to Be sure to call before you do [Chorus 3] And so long Dad So long Dad So long Dad So long Dad (fade)
