Am
Well, once when I was eight
E
everything was going great
C F
until my father, he tried to kill me
Am
By the time that I was nine
E
my daddy was doing time
C F
and my mother had enlisted in the army
Am G C
I wish my father had loved me more
Am
By the time that I was ten
E
my dad's life was going to end
C F
'cause he was going on ninety
Am
By the time I was eleven
E
my daddy was up in heaven
C F
in the clouds, staring down at me
Am G C
And I can't help but miss him
Am G C
Even though he hit me everyday
Am G C
And he tried to hang me with a belt once
Am G C
And he took nude photographs of my body
C Am
And by the time that I was twelve, I had made my first million
C Am
And by the time that I was fourteen, I had found the cure to cancer
C Am
And by the time that I was fourteen, I was the president of the country
C Am
And by the time that I was fifteen, I was the champion of the world
Am G C
So I'm glad my daddy didn't love me
Am G C
And I'm glad that he tried to kill me
Am G C
And I'm glad he took those pictures of me
Am G C
I am glad my daddy didn't love me
Am G C
I said I'm glad my daddy didn't love me
