Dear Dad, I know you’re proud of me 
even though you’ve never said it 
well
            D       E      A
I know you are, and I know that 
talking can be hard

And I think I’ve proven myself to be
 naturally responsible
      D       E       A          
And I want my mustang back.  I 
             D
want to cruise down Kirkwood,
E                   A
Make the other cruisers envy me

          E                     
I want to rip down the highways, 
       A
leave a cloud of jealousy
            D                      
The car was nothing but a junk 
  E
heap, when you bought it for me when
 I was
A
Fourteen
                          D 
We fixed it up together, and 
                       E    
honestly I think you can fix 
     A
anything

E                           A
And I know you’re proud of me 
because I’m living my dreams
   D             E            A  
So please, please, please, don’t 
              E           A
worry about me.  Please don’t worry 
about me

Dear mom, I know that you’re afraid
                      D      
You’ve got every right to be, 
 E       A
growing up with nothing to born to 
have a dream

And I know there’s a crook inside of
 you, just dying to get out
              D                E  
And you would hide me from the 
            A                     
cops, if they came knocking at your 
D
house
             E                 
You would drive my getaway car, 
           A
that’s just the way you are


You’ve gotta mothers heart
                       D
You’ve gotta mothers heart
                       E
You’ve gotta mothers heart
                       A
You’ve gotta mothers heart

A                             D
And I’m sorry that I’ve always 
forgot your birthday
          E
And you never forgot mine
         A                         
And I’m sorry that I haven’t given 
             D
you any grandkids
          E                      
And I’m sorry that I don’t have a 
  A
wife
          E                   A   
And I’m sorry that the way I live 
          D             E         
my life, isn’t the way you think 
  A
is right
                       D        
But you’ve raised me well, and I 
       E            A
think I came out alright

E                                  
Even though your ashamed of me for 
A
being such a thief
       E                           
Well I know you still love me, and 
  A
I admire your honesty

   D               E       A     
So please, please, please, don’t 
            D
worry about me
             E           A
Please don’t worry about me
