My father had dementia, [C#] he lied in bed for months.
[F#m] Once in a while he'd call me [Dm] and ask me to fly down.
[Bm] I told him that I'd love to, [D] but I had things to do.
So [A] he died [G#] without [F#] his son.
[Bm] I heard about it from after [D] a show.
[A] My mother battled cancer [C#] for over seven years.
[F#m] I nursed her and I held [Dm] her, where time was running out.
[B] The night before she left me, [D] I pissed myself all night and thanked [A] her for [E] everything [F#] she'd done.
[B] Leaving me alone [D] wasn't my fun.
[A] So dad I can't forgive you, [E] but I'll never forget.
[B] Once I wouldn't see you, [D] and when I did you'd be
[A] out with your friends all [E] night, alone and only nine.
[B] I'd watch the Outer [D] Limits, scared out of my mind.
[A] I wonder if you felt the same the day before you died.
[F#m] I wonder if you even knew why I wouldn't come around.
[A] [B] I bet if you had been there, it wouldn't be this song.
[A]
2006, [G#] [F#] goodbye parents for [E] once [D] in a year.
2006, my old [A] thing here.
