[Intro] D#m B F# D#m C# B
D#m B F#
The daughter's father watches
D#m C# B
Quietly we assume
D#m B F#
He's not longer with us
D#m C# B
But he left this dusty room
D#m C# B
In your name and it's an honor
D#m C# B
It's a shame but it's your honor
D#m C# B
Take it on your shoulder
D#m C# B
Til you can find another
D#m C# F#
That's enough for now
B C#
He should've never left you broken
D#m
He should've held you
B
Things your father never could do
D#m C# F#
That's enough for now
B C#
He would've never left you broken
D#m
He would've held you
B
Things your father never told you
D#m B F#
The century before you
D#m C# B
Never could turn 21
D#m B F#
Years and years he waited
D#m C# B
Just watching for a son
D#m C# B
For someone to go ahead
D#m C# B
Take the name he said
D#m C# B
Years and years he waited
D#m C# B
And a daughter came instead
D#m C# F#
That's enough for now
B C#
He should've never left you broken
D#m
He should've held you
B
Things your father never could do
D#m C# F#
That's enough for now
B C#
He would've never left you broken
D#m
He would've held you
B
Things your father never told you
D#m C# F#
Breathing comes in pairs
D#m C# B
Except for twice
D#m C# F# B
One begins and one's goodbye
D#m B F#
Sixty years of sorrow
D#m C# B
He got 5 or 6 of bliss
D#m B F#
Left my mother's mother
D#m C# B D#m
Without so much as a kiss
( C# F# B C# D#m B )
D#m C# F#
That's enough for now
B C#
He should've never left you broken
D#m
He should've held you
B
Things your father never could do
D#m C# F#
That's enough for now
B C#
He would've never left you broken
D#m
He would've held you
B
Things your father never told you.
