i love you this much

Intro:  D  Dsus2 D  G  Asus A (x2)

D           A/C#       Bm       
He can't remember the times that
      A
 he thought
     G        D/F#     Em7       A
Does my daddy love me, probably not
D            A/C#          Bm   
That didn't stop him from 
           A
wishing that he did
        G             D/F#    
Didn't keep him from wanting or 
   Em7         Asus A
worshipping him

D             A/C#      Bm      
He guesses he saw him about once
    A
 a year
           G            D/F#      
He could still feel the way he 
   Em7         A
felt standing in tears
D              A/C#        Bm   
Stretching his arms out as far 
          A
as they'd go
G           D/F#   Em7          A
Whispering, dad I want you to know

                 G                 
I love you this much and I'm 
      D/F#
waiting on you
Continues after the ad
                 Em7               
To make up your mind, do you love 
   A
me too?
                   G            
How ever long it takes I'm never 
        D/F#
giving up
          Em7   D/F#  G
No matter what
   A             D  (repeat intro 
progression once except on chorus 2)
I love you this much


D          A/C#          Bm     
He grew to hate him for what he 
     A
had done
       G            D/F#        
Cause what kind of father could 
Em              A
do that to his son
D         A/C#          Bm      
He said, damn you daddy the day 
         A
that he died
     G         D/F#           Em 
The man didn't blink but the 
        A
little boy cried


CHORUS


Bridge:
Em7                               
Half way through the service while
      D
 the choir sang a hymn
     C                             
He looked up above the preacher and
     A
 he sat and stared at him


          D          A/C#       
He said, forgive me father when 
Bm     A
he realized
         G            D/F#       
That he hadn't been unloved or 
Em7          A
alone all his life
D               A/C#            
His arms were stretched out as 
Bm           A
far as they'd go
G             D/F#          Em7 
Nailed to the cross for the 
            A
whole world to know
