Verse 1:
My [A]father had dementia

Once [F#m]in a while he'd call me
And [Dm]ask me to fly down
I [Bm]told him that I'd love
to But [D]I had things to
do And so he [A]died
with[E/G#]out his [F#m]son
I [Bm]heard about it
D D(hold)
drunk after a show

Verse 2:
My [A]mother battled cancer
For [C#m]over seven years
I [F#m]nursed her and I held her
When [Dm]time was running out
The [Bm]night before she left me
I drank s[D]cotch all night
And thanked her for
[A]every[E/G#]thing she'd [F#m]done
[Bm]Raising me alone
wasn't much [D]fun

Chorus 1:
So [A]Dad I can forgive you
But [E]I'll never forget
[Bm]Months I wouldn't see you
and [D]when I did You'd be
[A]out with your friends all
night A[E]lone and only nine
I [Bm]watched the outer limits
While s[D]cared out of my mind

Bridge:
I [A]wonder if you felt the same
The days before you died[E/G#]
I [F#m]wonder if you even knew
Why I wouldn't come around[E]
I [Bm]bet if you had been there
There wouldn't be this song
