Hey [D#m]dad
I’m writing to you [C#]
[D#m]Not to tell you [C#]
That I [B]still hate you
[D#m]Just to [C#]ask you
How you feel [B]
"
And how we fell apart
"
How this fell apart
Are you happy [D#m]out there [C#]
In this [B]great wide world
Do you think [D#m]
about your sons [C#]
Do you miss [B]your little girl
When you lay your [D#m]head down [C#]
How do [B]you sleep at night [D#m]
Do you even [C#]wonder if
we’re alright [B]
But we’re alright
We’re alright
[F#]It’s been a long hard
road without you by my side
[B]Why weren’t you there
the nights that we cried
[F#]You broke my mother’s heart
You broke your children for life
[B]It’s not ok but we’re alright
[F#]I remember the days you
were a hero in my eyes
[B]But those are just a
long lost memory of mine
I spent so [F#]many years
Learning how to survive
Now I’m [B]writing just to let you know
I’m still alive
The [D#m]days I [C#]spent
So [B]cold, so hungry
Were full [D#m]of hate [C#]
I [B]was so angry
The [D#m]scars run deep [C#]inside
This [B]tattooed body
[D#m]There’s things I’ll take
[B]To my grave
But I’m okay [D#m]
I’m [C#]okay
[F#]It’s been a long hard
road without you by my side
[B]Why weren’t you there
the nights that we cried
[F#]You broke my mother’s heart
You broke your children for life
[B]It’s not ok but we’re alright
[F#]I remember the days you
were a hero in my eyes
[B]But those are just a
long lost memory of mine
[B]Now I’m writing just to let you know
I’m still alive
And I’m still alive [C#]
[G#] [*]Sometimes I [F#]forget [**]
[G#]Yeah, and this time
[F#]I’ll [**]admit that I miss [G#]you
Said I [B]miss you
[F#]It’s been a long hard
road without you by my side
[B]Why weren’t you there
the nights that we cried
[F#]You broke my mother’s heart
You broke your children for life
[B]It’s not ok but we’re alright
[F#]I remember the days you
were a hero in my eyes
[B]But those are just a
long lost memory of mine
[B]Now I’m writing just to let you know
I’m still alive
[G#] [*]Sometimes I [F#]forget [**]
[G#]Yeah, and this time
[F#]I’ll [**]admit that I miss [G#]you
Said I [B]miss you
Hey Dad [F#]
