Holly Dunn

	KEY: C

		(4 mm intro)
		I REMEMBER DADDY'S HANDS FOLDED SILENTLY IN PRAYER
		AND REACHING OUT TO HOLD ME WHEN I HAD I NIGHTMARE
		YOU COULD READ QUITE A STORY IN THE CALLOUSES AND LINES
		YEARS OF WORK AND WORRY HAD LEFT THEIR MARK BEHIND

		I REMEMBER DADDY'S HANDS HOW THEY HELD MY MAMA TIGHT
		AND PATTED MY BACK FOR SOMETHING DONE RIGHT
		THERE ARE THINGS THAT I'VE FORGOTTEN THAT
		I LOVED ABOUT THE MAN
		BUT I'LL ALWAYS REMEMBER THE LOVE IN DADDY'S HANDS

	(CHORUS)   	DADDY'S HANDS WERE SOFT AND KIND
		  	WHEN I WAS CRYING
		    	DADDY'S HANDS WERE HARD AS STEEL 
		    	WHEN I'D DONE WRONG
	 	    	DADDY'S HANDS WEREN'T ALWAYS GENTLE
		    	BUT I'VE COME TO UNDERSTAND
		    	THERE WAS ALWAYS LOVE IN DADDY'S HANDS

		I REMEMBER DADDY'S HANDS WORKING TILL THEY BLED
		SACRIFICED UNSELFISHLY JUST TO KEEP US ALL FED
		IF I COULD DO THINGS OVER, I'D LIVE MY LIFE AGAIN
		AND NEVER TAKE FOR GRANTED THE LOVE IN DADDY'S HANDS

		(CHORUS TWICE)

	KEY: G

		(2 mm intro)

		I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR YOU BABY
		YOU'VE BEEN TAKING YOUR TIME TOO LONG
		DON'T BE SO SHY, OOH IT'S ALRIGHT
		THIS IS ONE NIGHT YOU CAN'T GO WRONG

	(CHORUS)    	ARE YOU EVER GONNA LOVE ME
		    	ARE YOU EVER GONNA COME AROUND
		    	I GOTTA KNOW, I GOTTA KNOW, I GOTTA KNOW
		    	IF YOU EVER WANNA HOLD ME
		    	THEN YOU GOTTA STOP HOLDIN' OUT
		    	IF YOU'RE GONNA LOVE ME, LOVE ME NOW

		I SEE OTHERS BEING LOVERS
		WILL THAT EVER BE YOU AND ME
		PLEASE DON'T MAKE ME WONDER BABY
		YES, NO, MAYBE WHAT WILL IT BE

		(CHORUS)
		
		(7 mm break)

		IF YOU'RE GONNA LOVE ME, LOVE ME NOW
		I GOTTA KNOW, I GOTTA KNOW, I GOTTA KNOW
		OH, ARE YOU EVER GONNA LOVE ME, LOVE ME NOW
		I GOTTA KNOW, ARE YOU EVER GONNA LOVE ME

	KEY: D

		THE WAY THAT YOU TOUCHED ME MADE ME BELIEVE
		YOU'D NEVER LOVE ANY OTHER THE WAY THAT YOU LOVED ME
		WHEN YOU SAID FOREVER I THOUGHT IT WAS TRUE 
		WE'D BE TOGETHER OUR WHOLE LIVES THROUGH
		WELL I'VE GOTTA HAND IT TO YOU

	(CHORUS 1)	YOU REALLY HAD ME GOING, STRINGING ME ALONG
			YOU REALLY HAD ME GOING, BABY, & NOW I'M GONE
			YOU PUT ONE OVER ON ME, SAID I'M THE ONLY ONE
			YOU REALLY HAD ME GOING, BABY, & NOW I'M GONE

		YOU NEVER THOUGHT I'D SEE YOU IN TOWN
		WALKING & TALKING & HOLDING YOUR NEW LOVE DID YOU
		YOU HAD A LAUGH WHEN THE JOKE WAS ON ME
		BUT YOU'RE GONNA CRY WHEN YOU GET TO SEE 
		THE WAY THAT I LOOK WHEN I LEAVE

	(CHORUS 2)	YOU REALLY HAD ME GOING, STRINGING ME ALONG
			YOU REALLY HAD ME GOING, BABY & NOW I'M GONE
			I NEVER SAW IT COMING, THAT YOU COULD DO ME WRONG
			YOU REALLY HAD ME GOING, BABY & NOW I'M GONE

		OH YOU PROVED YOU'RE GOOD WITH A LIE 
		ARE YOU THAT GOOD WITH GOOD-BYE
		YOU REALLY HAD ME
		YOU REALLY HAD ME GOING, 
			STRINGING ME ALONG
		YOU REALLY HAD ME GOING, 
			BABY & NOW I'M GONE
		NOW I'M GONE,  NOW I'M GONE
		OH, NOW I'M GONE
