         G
Smoking daddy
          C               F 
Did the smoke get in your eyes? 
           C                   G
Or was it just that brilliant sun 
               C
That made you cry? 


         G
Smoking daddy 
         C                   F
Looking down from out of a cloud 
          C                        G
And the smoke goes straight up to heaven 
                                       C
with the words we would never say out loud
 

            G                C
You never know (I might get Lucky) 
            G                               C    
You never know (I might break that Camel's back) 
         G                                C
I'll be lit up (Like those girls down in Salem) 
           G                            C 
I'll be a cowboy (Twenty times in every pack) 


Smoking daddy 
You see a Red 
And it cannot be denied 
Smoke comes out 
Then it means you're still breathing 
You just don't quit 
Even though I know you've tried 

You never know... 

Smoking daddy 
Just a red light in the dark 
The shooting stars out in the corner of my yard 
Make me wish on that little trail of sparks 
You never know... 
I'll be
