Intro:
Silence: Plucking
Distortion enters:
Very fast punk rock drums!!!
Verse 1:
My father had dementia
He lied in bed for months
Once in a while he'd call me
And ask me to fly down
I told him that I'd love
to But I had things to
do And so he died
without his son
I heard about it
D D(hold)
drunk after a show
Verse 2:
My mother battled cancer
For over seven years
I nursed her and I held her
When time was running out
The night before she left me
I drank scotch all night
And thanked her for
everything she'd done
Raising me alone
wasn't much fun
Chorus 1:
So Dad I can forgive you
But I'll never forget
Months I wouldn't see you
and when I did You'd be
out with your friends all
night Alone and only nine
I watched the outer limits
While scared out of my mind
Bridge:
I wonder if you felt the same
The days before you died
I wonder if you even knew
Why I wouldn't come around
I bet if you had been there
There wouldn't be this song
Outro: A-- x4
goodbye parents
For once sincere
A B/Eb D F#m--F#m(hold)
