[F]
[Am] [G] When I [C] was younger, my daddy told me I would never
Never amount to nothing special
He'd come at me from [F] every angle
[C] He'd say, you're the last thing I wanted, the last thing I need
[F] How am I gonna answer when my friends tell me
My [Am] son [G] was kissing boys [F] in the street
My [C]
[Am] son [G] was kissing boys in [F] the street
He'd [C] try to change me, say I'm embarrassing [F] my culture
[C] How could I do this to my family?
Don't wanna grow up [F] being lonesome
He'd say, [C] we've worked for our money, we've put you in school
Is [F] this how you repay us?
Do you think this is cool?

[Am] [G] Now [C] that I'm older, my daddy's heart's a little [F] warmer
But he still won't hold me [C] like my brother
And he still won't kiss me like my mother

We're sitting in [C] silence but we're smiling
Because for once [F] we are not fighting
He'd say, [C] there was no way of knowing
