Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Verse i

Hey dad look at me

Think back and talk to me

 Did I grow up according to plan?

And do you think I'm wasting my time doing things I wanna do?

 But it hurts when you disapprove all along

Refrain

 And now I try hard to make it

I just want to make you proud

I'm never gonna be good enough for you

I can't pretend that I'm alright

 And you can't change me

Chorus

Cos we lost it all

Nothing lasts forever

I'm sorry

 I can't be perfect

Now it's just too late and

We can't go back

 I'm sorry

 I can't be perfect

Verse ii

I try not to think

About the pain I feel inside

 Did you know you used to be my hero?

 All the days you spend with me

Now seem so far away

 And it feels like you don't care anymore

Refrain

 And now I try hard to make it

I just want to make you proud

 I'm never gonna be good enough for you

I can't stand another fight

 And nothing's alright

Chorus

Cos we lost it all

Nothing lasts forever

I'm sorry

 I can't be perfect

Now it's just too late and

We can't go back

 I'm sorry

 I can't be perfect

Nothing's gonna change the things that you said

Nothing's gonna make this right again

Please don't turn your back

I can't believe it's hard

 Just to talk to you

 But you don't understand

Chorus

Cos we lost it all

Nothing lasts forever

I'm sorry

 I can't be perfect

Now it's just too late and

We can't go back

 I'm sorry

 I can't be perfect
