Daddy, You've Been On My Mind
(Joan Baez)

CDm7CG7
Perhaps it's the color of the sun cut flat And
AmD7
coverin' the crossroads I'm standin' at. Or
CAmFC
maybe it's the weather or something like that,
D7G7C
But daddy, you've been on my mind.
CDm7C
I don't mean trouble, please don't put me down
G7AmD7
or get upset, I am not pleading, or saying I
CAmF
can't forget. I do not walk the floor bowed down
CD7G7C
and bent, but yet Daddy, you're just on my mind.
CDm7C
Even though my mind is hazy and my thoughts they
G7Am
might be narrow, Where you been don't bother me,
D7C
nor bring me down in sorrow. It don't even
     
AmFC
matter to me where you're wakin' up tomorrow,
D7G7C
Daddy, you're just on my mind.
CDm7C
I am not asking you to say words like "yes" and
G7AmD7
"no." Please understand me, I got no place for
CAm
you to go. I'm just breathing to myself
FCD7
pretending not that I don't know, Daddy, you
G7C
been on my mind.
CDm7C
When you wake up in the morning, baby, look
G7Am
inside your mirror, You know I won't be next to
D7
you, you know I won't be near, I'd just be
CAmF
curious to know if you can see yourself as
CD7G7C
clear, As someone who's had you on her mind.

Daddy, you're just on my mind.
