Recorded by Bobby Bare  with Bobby Bare Jr.
Written by Shel Silverstein

G                 Am
Daddy what if the sun stop shining
D7                G    G7
What would happen then

       C                   G
If the sun stopped shining you'd be so surprised
      C                    G
You'd stare at the heavens with wide open eyes
        C                     G            Em
And the wind would carry your light to the skies
        Am              D7       G
And the sun would start shining again

                  Am
Daddy what if the wind stopped blowing
D7                G    G7
What would happen then

       C                    G
If the wind stopped blowing then the land would be dry
         C                          G
And your boat wouldn't sail son and your kite couldn't fly
        C                                 G              Em
And the grass would see your troubles and she'd tell the wind
        Am               D7       G
And the wind would start blowing again

                      Am
But daddy what if the grass stopped growing
D7                G    G7
What would happen then

       C                     G
If the grass stopped growing why you'd probably cry
        C                              G
And the ground would be watered by the tears from your eyes
         C                          G             Em
And like your love for me the grass would grow so high
        Am                D7      G
Yes the grass would start growing again

                    Am
But daddy what if I stopped loving you
D7                G
What would happen then

         C                       G
If you'd stop loving me then the grass would stop growing
        C                          G
The sun would stop shining and the wind would stop blowing
       C                          G           Em
So you see if you wanna keep this old world a going
    Am           D7        G     Em
You better start loving me again again
    Am           D7        G
You better start loving me again

You hear me Bobby
    Am           D7        G
You better start loving me again

You love me Bobby
