Verse 1
(G major) There's a (E minor) "For Sale" sign
on my (D major) dad's sail (G major) boat
Don't even (E minor) ask mom why
'cause (D major) I already know (G major)
Yeah, I (A minor) knew he'd get old,
but I don't (D major) know, I (E minor) guess
Had no idea it was (D major) gonna
hurt like (G major) this
Verse 2
We used to (E minor) see who could hug the tightest
(D major) and I couldn't take (G major) him
Now I (E minor) barely even squeeze 'cause I
(D major) feel like I'm gon' (G major) break him
Bet he (C major) wonders why it takes
me so (D major) long to let (E minor) go
There's a "For Sale" sign
on my (D major) dad's sail (G major) boat

Verse 3
(E minor) Part of me wants to tear it down
(D major) And let it (G major) drown in the river
For (E minor) get the inevitable
And pre (D major) tend that her (G major) oes live forever
(C major) Part of me wants to buy it
(D major) And keep it (E minor) like I wish I could him
But I know that ain't gon'
make (D major) dad (G major) young again
(E minor) Tears don't care (D major) if I don't
want 'em to come
I'm tryna (G major) take it like a man
(C major) but I'm taking it like a son (E minor)
(D major) Taking it like a (G major) son
(D major) (G major)
Verse 4
(E minor) His hands shake just (D major) like his dad's (G major) did
When (E minor) he was my age and
(D major) I was just a (G major) kid
You can (C major) tell in that cellphone
(D major) number that he (E minor) wrote
On that "For Sale" sign on my
(D major) dad's sail (G major) boat
(E minor) Part of me wants to tear it down
(D major) And let it (G major) drown in the river
For (E minor) get the inevitable
And pre (D major) tend that her (G major) oes live forever
(C major) Part of me wants to buy it
(D major) And keep it (E minor) like I wish I could him
But I know that ain't gon'
make (D major) dad (G major) young again
(E minor) Tears don't care (D major) if I don't
want 'em to come
I'm tryna (G major) take it like a man
(C major) but I'm taking it like a son (E minor)
(D major) Taking it like a son
(G major) (D major) (G major)
Verse 5
(A minor) Guess I saw it coming, I just (D major) acted (E minor) blind
Like my dad could beat up (D major) Father Time (G major)
(E minor)
Verse 6

(D major) And let it (G major) drown in the river
For (E minor) get the inevitable
And pre (D major) tend that her (G major) oes live forever
(C major) Part of me wants to buy it
(D major) And keep it (E minor) like I wish I could him
But I know that ain't gon'
make (D major) dad (G major) young again
(E minor) Tears don't care (D major) if I don't
want 'em to come
I'm tryna (G major) take it like a man
(C major) but I'm taking it like a son (E minor)
(D major) Taking it like a son
