Padre

Recorded by Marty Robbins D F#m The day that we wed, you blessed us and said D G May Heaven bestow you grace. D A D Here in this holy place, we shared our first embrace. D F#m Our cottage was small but richer than all D G the palaces of a king. D A D Each night the birds would sing. Our hearts were full of spring. Chorus: G7 Pa dre, pa dre D A What happened to the love we knew? D D7G Pa dre, pa dre D AD In my grief I turn to you Then he came along and sang her a song And won her with sugared lies He of the fiery eyes. Now its my heart that cries. So I kneel and pray the hours away And weary my heart has grown; wondering where love has flown Counting my beads alone. Repeat chorus. (Thanks to Doug Russell for tabs)
