_ Ladies and gentlemen, I want to thank all the crew here.
I want to thank my wonderful team.
On lights we've got Zach, Zach Corp.
And on sound, Steve Lo.

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [G#] You know, we work very hard [C#] to get somewhere in our lives.
But you have to start with [G#] a vision, you have to start with a [N] dream.
And I used to be laying in the back seat of my father's car when I was 8 years old, dreaming of playing in this place.
And at the time, oh my gosh!
Oh my gosh! _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
I enjoyed the journey, that's for sure. _
I have to sing a song dedicated to Jet Actors tonight.
So, I'm going to sing a song about coming _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
out and having my dream come true tonight.
This is great. _ _
_ _ _ [Am] _ _ _ [F#] _ [A] _
_ When [E] I was young, [D] my dad would [E] say
_ [A] Come [E] on son, let's [F#m] go out and play
[E] _ Sometimes [B] it feels like [Bm] yesterday
Then _ [E] _ _ [A] I'd climb [E] up the [F#m] closet [E] shelf
When _ I [F#m] was all by [A] myself _ _
I'd grab [E] his hat [Bm] and I'd [F#] fix the break
_ [D] _
Pretending [E] I [A] was him
But _
[E] no matter how [D] hard [Am] I try
No [E] matter how [D] many years [A] go by
[E] No matter [C#] how [F#m] many tears I [B] cry
_ [E] I still can't say [A] goodbye
He _ [D] _
_ [E] _ _ _ [A] always [E] took care [D] of Mama Bee
[E] _ [A] We all [G#] cut [F#m] down a Christmas [E] tree
_ [A] Papa always [F#] had time for [Bm] me
_ _ [D] _ _
[E] _ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _ [D] _
Wind [G#] [C#] blows through [F#m] the trees _
[D] Street [E] lights still [A] shine bright
[G#] _ [D#] _ [F#m] _ Most [C#] things [F#m] seem the same
_ [Em] But I miss my [B] dad [Bm] tonight
_ _ _ [E] I walk [B] by a Salvation Army store
A sore [C#] hat like my daddy [D] wore
_ [A] _
I [E] tried it all [Bm] as I ought to
Cause _ [D] I'm still [E] trying to be a [A] man
No _ [E] matter _ how [D] hard [Am] I [E] try
No matter _ how [D] many years go [A] [E] by
No matter [C#] how many [F#] tears I cry
[B] _ _
[D] I still [E] can't say goodbye
[D] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ I still [E] miss_
_ [A] _ _ _ _ _ [F#] _ [D] _ _ [C#m] _ _ [Bm] _ _
