[Chorus]

Em
And tell her I'm lonely
C
She'd say, "Don't you cry"
D
Tell me not to worry
G
Took me 'til I'm older
Em
For this life to show me
C D
That I'm not always in the right
G
I'm still a baby in her eyes
[Verse]
G
I didn't understand
Em
When I was a kid
C
The things that you would do
D
To make sure I could live
G
Oh, I refused to take your hand
Em
In front of all my friends
C
But you still kept your promise
D
That you'd love me 'til the end
[Bridge]
Am Em
I'm sorry I've been busy chasing dreams,
Am
but I'm committed
D
I'll try to make things different
[Chorus]

I should call my mom

I miss you when I'm gone
Em
And when I fall in love
C
I don't know what to do

Is there a rule book for this stuff?
G
Or that time that I got sick
Em
And I didn't know myself
C
I closed the door and hid
D
When I should have asked for help
[Bridge]
Am Em
I'm sorry I've been busy chasing dreams,
Am
but I'm committed

I'll try to make things different
