Verse 1                                                      
G                  D              C                G
I remember when my daddy work all day for just a dollar
                                                       D
And he never saved a penny but at least the bills were paid
G                     D                C                  G 
And I've never seen a man work half as hard and come home half as tired 
C                     D            G
Then give the Lord a tenth of all made
Chorus
D                                       G
Daddy said I'm making payments on a mansion
C                                                              D
And so many times he's told this old world is not his not his home                
G                       D           C                G
And he told he'd been promised he'd receive a fare reward 
C                                D              G
Daddy did best then he left the rest up to the Lord
Verse2
G                 D                 C                 G
I've never seen a man that had more reason for complaint
                                                     D
But he'd smile at me explaining how he never walked alone
G                          D             C              G
When they called me to his  bed I remember how my daddy
C                             D               G
Just looked up and smiled and said I'm going home
Chorus
D                                       G
Daddy said I'm making payments on a mansion 
C                                                              D
And so many times he's told this old world is not his not his home                
G                       D           C                G
And he told he'd been promised he'd receive a fare reward 
C                                D              G
Daddy did best then he left the rest up to the Lord
Verse 3
G                        D                  C
Since my daddy left this world for one much better
G                                                                        D
I've been watching people worrying more and working for the things they can't 
afford
G                                   D                C                G     
And this world that's filled with problems, no ones ever found the answer 
C                      D               G
To the things my daddy left up to the Lord
  
Chorus
D                                       G
Daddy said I'm making payments on a mansion
C                                                              D
And so many times he's told this old world is not his not his home                
G                       D           C                G
And he told he'd been promised he'd receive a fare reward 
C                                D              G
Daddy did best then he left the rest up to the Lord
