Verse 1
Am
met
you were the growing top gun.
freshman eyes
Bdim
F
Stom ach too small for what
Thought I can handle it,
I took you by the hand
And I asked you to marry me,
I knelt on the sand
You said yes, never a second yes
Waited a few years to have
babies was the plan
G
F
Working as a stock clerk at Nabisco
Dm
Am
But I loved you, I put you first above all
Raised you high,
so that you would never fall
We got more close sexually, daily
Slipped up,
and got you pregnant with a baby
Bdim

Upset your parents,

Bdim
didn't tell mine
G
F
I told you it'd be okay in time
Said that I loved you
and you're my best friend
Told you to trust me until the end
Till death do us part
Bdim
That was the start, but I'm leav ing
I told you I wouldn't have
I had to have a meeting with your dad
I was very nervous, he was very sad
You were going jogging,
and I knew what I had
Bm
Bdim
I had time to stall
G
F
I told him that I'd get a
second job at the mall
Am
Dm
He said okay, but filled with disbelief
Cause I knew I didn't want to,
Dm
Am
knew I didn't plan this
Knew I had to give all up,
my goal's just to stand this
Bm
Bdim
And that really sucked, I was so young
rap and have fun
Am
F
Dm
Did I really have to

or would he had thought about it?
Am
It was my life, it belonged to no one else
thief in the night
G
F
Disappear with a trace,
left a note that felt like
Said that I loved you
and you're my best friend
Told you to trust me until the end
Till death do us part, that was the start
G
Bdim
But I'm leav ing,
G
F
I'm sorry but I'm leaving
I'm still spinning my wheels
Still making demos,
looking for a record deal
You found my address,
bumped into my friend
Sent me a letter,
told me silence had to end
G
F
And every time she looked at you
it felt like me
where is my dad?
And what did he do, mommy,
to make you so mad?
You said I had to come
and finally meet my girl
I said that I would, if only I could
Bm
Bdim
it was answered by her
F
Am
I knew by her eyes that I was her father
I know to your level,
said who are you?
You said Emily,
I said how cute
I walked you in, holding your hand
You showed me your bedroom,
I took a slow pan
Bm
Bdim
You said Daddy, where have you been?
have to leave again
Dm
Am
I looked in your eyes, pretend to grin
Said that I loved you
and you're my best friend
Told you to trust me until the end
Till death do us part
That was the start
G
Bdim
But I'm leav ing
