Standard (EADGBE)
Father, thanks for playing with my friends and me.
I'm glad they got to meet the man I know.
You always knew the words and taught me honesty.
Picked me up when I was feeling low.
If I could talk to you just one more time,
I know you'ld work things out just like before.
Where did I go wrong? Can you hear me sing this song?
Father I won't see you anymore.
Mother, dry your eyes why do you cry those tears.
You knew someday your baby'd be a man.
Letting go is hard when it's forever dear.
I know it's late but now I understand.
If I could hold you hand just one more time,
and hear your lullabies just like before.
I know that I did wrong, so I'm singing you this song.
Mother, I won't see you anymore.
Son, I wish you knew how much we're missing you.
I saw them cry their tears from up above.
I try to tell them, but the words aren't getting through,
I didn't mean to hurt the ones I love.
Mother, Father I hope to see you soon,
and things will be just like they were before.
I'm sending all my love, I'm watching from above...
