 Subject: DAD'S OLD FIDDLE
 DAD'S OLD FIDDLE
 Recorded by Merle Haggard
 Words and music by Glenn W. Martin
 [D] There's two nails in the wall
 Above the [G] door in the hall
 Where [D] Dad's old fiddle hung for twenty [A7] years
 I [D] recall as just a boy
 How my [G] heart would beat with joy
 When [D] Daddy would play the [A7] song I loved to [D] hear:
 
 And Daddy would [G] play: - Fiddle ...
 
 Daddy never left us any will
 Tellin' us what he'd give
 But ev'rybody knew his fiddle was mine
 But the fiddle was all he left
 So I had to teach myself
 And I bet I played his song a million times:
 
 And I would play: - Fiddle ...
 
 Well, if Dad could see me now
 Oh, I know that he'd be proud
 To hear his old fiddle play once again
 But mayble it won't be long
 'Til I join him in a song
 And together we play this song once again:
 
 And then we'll play: - Fiddle ...
