[B]
[Am]
[F]
[G]
[C] My father had dementia,
[Em] he lied in bed for months.
[Am] Once in a while he'd call me [F] and [Fm] ask me to fly down.
[Dm] I told him that I'd love to, [F] but I had things to do.
And so [C] he died without [Am] his son.
[F] I heard about it drunk after [Fm] a show.
[C] My mother battled cancer [Em] for over seven years.
[Am] I nursed her and I held her [F] when time [Fm] was running out.
[Dm] The night before she left me, I [F] drank scotch all night and thanked her [C] for everything
[Am] she'd done.
[F] Raising me alone wasn't [Fm] much fun.
[C] So dad I can't forgive you, [G] but I'll never forget.
[Dm] Months I wouldn't see you, [F] and when I did you'd be
[C] out with your friends all night, [G] alone and only nine.
[Dm] I'd watch the outer limits, [F] scared out of my mind.
[C] I wonder if you felt the same the days before you died.
[Am] I wonder if you even knew why I wouldn't come around.
[Dm] I bet if [D] you had been there, there wouldn't be this song.
[C]
2006, goodbye [Am] parents, for once I'm [F] sincere.
2006, that was my orphan [C] year.
