Verse 1:
Em                              C
   Mother tell me why'd you have to fall
Em                             C
   Mother tell me why'd you have to break at all
Em                          C
   Mother show me a good way to live

Chorus:
G                                 C
   Because there's no more room for hiding
G                         C
   I've got no breath for denying
G                            C
   I've got so much locked up inside me
               G *                          Am *
   Just like a lion, I've got to uncage it all
                      Em    C    Em    C
   And watch you run away
*Chord walk-down

   Father tell me why'd you have to go
Em                                 C
   Father tell me why didn't you let me know
Em                            C
   Father show me how to be a man
Em                                 C
   Instead of holding back tears as hard as I can
