Verso 1:
A5 
My father had dementia 
C#5 
He lied in bed for months 
F#5 
Once in a while he'd call me 
        Dm 
And ask me to fly down 
B5 
I told him that I'd love to 
      D5 
But I had things to do 
                   A5          E/G#  F#5 
And so he died without his son 
  B5                                D5 
I heard about it drunk after a show 

Verso 1:
A5 
My mother battled cancer 
C#5 
For over seven years 
F#5 
I nursed her and I held her 
          Dm 
When time was running out 
       B5 
The night before she left me 
              D5 
I drank scotch all night 
                                     A5   E/G#  F#5 
And thanked her for everything she'd done 
B5                                D5 
Raising me alone wasn't much fun 

Verso 1:
A5 
So Dad I can forgive you,  
       E5 
But I'll never forget,  
B5                            D5 
Months I wouldn't see you and when I did You'd be  
A5 
out with your friends all night 
E5 
Alone and only nine 
  B5 
I watched the outer limits 
          D5 
While scared out of my mind 

A5                                                      E/G# 
I wonder if you felt the same The days before you died        
F#5 
I wonder if you even knew Why I wouldn't come around 
Bm 
I bet if you had been there, There wouldn't be this song 

Final  

 

 

A5      E/G# 
2006  
F#5 
goodbye parents 
            D5 
For once sincere 
               A5 
2006 my orphan year
