[Intro]
D Bm Em G A
D Bm
Every morning when I wake I ask myself why,
Em
why didn't I hold on, why didn't I try,
G
maybe if I had stuck it out we could all
still be,
A
could still be a family
D Bm
And I know this is hard for you to understand,
Em
I might be your dad but I'm still not a man,
G
we loved you so much we had to let you go,
A
it was for your own good I hope that you
Bm
know.
Bm G D
Every morning when I wake I feel wrong,
A Bm
your mother she cried when I sang her this song,
G D
we were too young what other choice did we have,
A
I just wasn't ready to be your dad.
[Outro]
D Bm Em G A
