Verse
My Cfather had dementia
He Emlied in bed for months
Once Amin a while he'd call me
And Fask me to Fmfly down
I Dmtold him that I'd love to
But FI had things to do
And so he Cdied Gwithout his Amson
I Fheard about it drunk after a Fmshow
My Cmother battled cancer
For Emover seven years

When Ftime was running Fmout
The Dmnight before she left me
I drank Fscotch all night
And thanked her for CeveryGthing she'd Amdone
FRaising me alone wasn't much Fmfun
Chorus
So Cdad I can forgive you,
But GI'll never forget,
DmMonths I wouldn't see you and Fwhen I did
You'd be Cout with your friends all night
AGlone and only nine
I Dmwatched the outer limits
And Fscared out of my mind
I Cwonder if you felt the same
The days before you died

Why I wouldn't come around
I Dmbet if you had been there,
There wouldn't be this song

Lyrics:
My father had dementia
He lied in bed for months
Once in a while he'd call me
And ask me to fly down
I told him that I'd love to
But I had things to do
And so he died without his son
I heard about it drunk after a show
My mother battled cancer
For over seven years
I nursed her and I held her
When time was running out
The night before she left me
I drank scotch all night
And thanked her for everything she'd done
Raising me alone wasn't much fun
So dad I can forgive you,
But I'll never forget,
Months I wouldn't see you and when I did
You'd be out with your friends all night
Alone and only nine
I watched the outer limits
And scared out of my mind
I wonder if you felt the same
The days before you died
I wonder if you even knew
Why I wouldn't come around
I bet if you had been there,
There wouldn't be this song
2006 goodbye parents
For once I'm sincere
2006 that was my orphan year
