E 
Honey, I'm sorry that I had to go

But there's something about

me that you didn't know

When I was young, I fathered a son

Now he's got   himself in trouble
Bb#sus4

Verse 2
E 
Bbdim 
His mother and I were quite
young at the time
Am 
But there's not much room for doubt
D 
That the child was mine
E 
I asked her folks for her hand
Bbdim 
But they said there's just no way
Am 
No  matter how I begged and pleaded
D 
They sent their daughter away
