Tears For a Father

Am

C            G             Am    G
What's going on inside of you...
G
Still wondering
       C                G      F   G
If my voice is reaching through to you...
      Am               G
First day of school today
           C
And I was late
               G
Cause of the glass
         Am
By mamas bed
  C           G       F   G
I think she's missing you


E
Miss Angel told us
F
Write some lines
C           G
About your families
           Am
I finish first...
  C          G
I turned in blank...


C
Don't want to play
             Am
Another day without you
  Dm
Oh - daddy
                   G
Open up your tired eyes

C
Want you to watch my games
               Am
And say you're proud of me
Dm                               C  G
Want you to do what ever fathers do...


Am                   C
Today my best friend Tim and me
Am                    C        G
Stole apples from the Millhouse tree
        Am
Please don't tell...
 F         G
I know you won't tell

             C        G         Am
If she finds out that I've been bad
            G                Am
She gets so sad and when she does
          G     F           F7
The muddy water helps her smile...
    Am       C    G
A while.....

            C
But I won't cry
     F
No I won't
         G          C
I'll be strong, goodnight dad
       F        G     C
I will turn the radio on
