[intro ]- Em D G Em D C
(Verse 1)
Em D G Em D C
The Daughters' Father watches, quiet ly we assume
Em D G Em D C
He's no longer with us but he left this dusty room
Em D G
And your name it's an honor
Em D C
It's a shame but it's your honor
Em D G
To take it on your shoulder
Em D C
'til you can find another
{Chorus}
Em D G
That's enough for now
C D
He should have never left you broken
Em
He should have held you
C
Things your Father never told you
Em D G
That's enough for now
C D
He would have never left you broken
Em
He would have held you
C
Things your Father never could do
{Verse 2} - same progression as verse 1
The century before me, never could turn 21
Years and years he waited, just watching for a son
someone to go ahead, to take the name instead
Years and years he waited, then a daughter came instead
{Chorus}
Em D G Em D C
(Bridge)
Em D G
Breathing comes in pairs
Em D C
Except for twice
Em D G C
One begins and one's goodbye
Em D G Em D C
60 years of sorrow, you got 5 or 6 of bliss
Em D G
Left my mothers' mother
Em D C
Without so much as a .....
Em D G C D Em C
kiss As a kiss
Em D G C D Em C
{Chorus}
60 years of sorrow, you got 5 or 6 of bliss
Left my Mothers' mother
Without so much as a kiss
