To hear the track, copy and paste this link:
FINE TUNING:
The original studio track is slightly under
standard pitch. Possibly the backing tracks were
slightly slowed down before Elvis added his vocals.
To match this pitch more closely use a chromatic
tuner and detune all your strings down
approximately minus 20 cents below standard pitch.
Alternatively, you may find a live version on YouTube
which is more likely to be in standard pitch.

[Verse 1]
[D]
To - day I stumbled from my bed...
[F#]
With thunder crashing in my head,
[G] [D] [C/D]
And my pillow still wet from last night's tears,
[D]
And as I think of giving up,
[F#]
A voice inside my coffee-cup,
[G] [C] [A]
Kept crying out, ringing in my ears
[Chorus]
N.C. [D] * [Em] [Em7] [A]
Don't cry, Daddy! Daddy, please don't cry!
[G] * [A]
Daddy, you've still got me and little Tommy,
[D] * [G] *
To - gether we'll find a brand new mommy,
[D] N.C.
Daddy, Daddy, please, laugh again,
[A7] N.C.
Daddy, ride us on your back again,
[G] [F#m] [Em] * [A7] [D]
Oh, D - ad - dy, please, don't cry

[Verse 2]
[D]
Why are children always first...
[F#]
To feel the pain and hurt the worst?
[G] [D] [C/D]
It's cruel, but somehow it just don't seem right,
[D]
'Cause every time I cry...
[F#]
I know it hurts my little children so,
[G] [C] [A]
And, I wonder, will it be the same to - night?
[Chorus]
N.C. [D] * [Em] [Em7] [A]
Don't cry, Daddy! Daddy, please don't cry!
[G] * [A]
Daddy, you've still got me and little Tommy,
[D] * [G] *
To - gether we'll find a brand new mommy,
[D] N.C.
Daddy, Daddy, please, laugh again,

Daddy, ride us on your back again,

Oh, D - ad - dy, please, don't cry

Oh, D - ad - dy, ...please ...don't ...cry
