Capo 2 (For same as Album)
Bm G Dsus2 D A Bm G Dsus2 D A
Bm G
Living on my own, thinking for myself
Dsus2 D A
Castles in sand, temporary wealth
Bm G
Walls are falling down; storms are closing in
Dsus2 D A
Tears have filled my eyes, here I am again
Bm G Dsus2 D A
And I've held out as long as I can
Bm G Dsus2 D A
Now I'm letting go and holding out my hand
[Refrão]Bm G D A
Daddy, here I am again, will you take me back tonight
Bm G D A
I went and made the world my friend, and it left me high and dry
G Bm
I drag your name back through the mud
A Em
That you first found me in
G Bm
Not worthy to be called your son
A Em
Is this to be my end?
Bm G
Daddy, here I am
D A
Here I am again
Bm G
Curse this morning sun, drags me in to one more day
Dsus2 D A
Of reaping what I've sown, of living with my shame
Bm G
Welcome to my world, and the life that I have made
Dsus2 D A
Where one day you're a prince, the next day you?re a slave
