         A
You're a precious stone
You're out on your own
You know everyone in the world
But you feel alone [bass riff #1]
Daddy won't let you weep
Daddy won't let you ache
Daddy gives you as much as you can take
A-ha sha-la, a-ha sha-la
Daddy's gonna pay for your crashed car

A little uptight
You're a baby's fist
Butterfly kisses up and down your wrist
When you see daddy coming
You're licking your lip
Nails bitten down to the quick
A-ha sha-la, a-ha sha-la
Daddy's gonna pay for your crashed car
Daddy's gonna pay for your crashed car

You've got a head full of traffic
You're a siren's song
You cry for mama
And daddy's right along
He gives you the keys to a flamin' car
Daddy's with you wherever you are
Daddy's a comfort
Daddy's your best friend
Daddy'll hold your hand right up to the end
A-ha sha-la, a-ha sha-la
Daddy's gonna pay for your crashed car
Daddy's gonna pay for your crashed car

Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday's alright...
[Repeat and fade until end]




Daddy's Gonna Pay for Your Crashed Car

I listened  very hard to Daddy's ... and I now change my opinion to :  There
is guitar. Only it is run through like a RottoVibe, Octave, Big Muff, Whah
Whah, Phazer, and about 35 other peddles.  I just got done hooking up all my
peddles in every possible way... Absolutely nothing sounded like it.
BUTTTTTTT, I do think I figured it out!  If you have a cruch box/peddle,
CRANK IT UP.  
 
                A               G

That is it.

A                     G                         
Your a precious stone 
A                     G  
Your out on your own
A                               G                             
You know everyone in the world
A                  G     
Your still alone

Play it along with the cd/cassette/record/8-track and if you play it on a 4
beat, like:  A A A G it sounds right( to me, my opinion ).
