Verse 1
Em Em 
 
D D 
 
Em Em 
 
D D 
 
You
Em Em 
 
turn sixteen
and suddenly he knows nothing
D D 
 
And you know everything
Em Em 
 
Who you are and where
you're going,
there's no way of him a -knowing,
G G 
 
D D 
 
or so you think.
Bm Bm 
 
A A 
 
G G 
 
And you start tuning him out,
Bm Bm 
 
he doesn't know what
A A 
 
G G 
 
he's talking about,
A A 
 
D D 
 
so you cut the ties.
Em Em 
 
At  21, you've seen it all,
an occasional telephone call
D D 
 
Let's him know, you've arrived
Em Em 
 
You've got a job, you're doing well
D D 
 
His advice can go to hell, it's your life
Bm Bm 
 
A A 
 
You deny Him at every turn
G G 
 
Bm Bm 
 
A A 
 
G G 
 
And in the wake of the bridge's burn
A A 
 
D D 
 
You cut the ties
Bm Bm 
 
D D 
 
Em Em 
 
Then the years drag on
D D 
 
And there's less and less you see then
Em Em 
 
Then life goes wrong

Verse 2

And God knows you loved to talk to Him,

but you can't.

Verse 3

Because of pride, you cut the ties.

Verse 4

Then one day you're at home,

you get a call.

Verse 5

Your heart breaks as you race.

Beat the clock.

F#m

Be the rock that'll stand by his side.

Verse 6
D D 
 
Em Em 
 
His last breath,
D D 
 
he confesses to you his undying love.
Em Em 
 
And with tears in your eyes
you wish the time would have a heart,
D D 
 
boy, but it never does.
Bm Bm 
 
And you choke on those
A A 
 
years of foolish pride.
G G 
 
Bm Bm 
 
It was you that always
A A 
 
G G 
 
brandished the knife,
A A 
 
D D 
 
and  you cut the tie
Em Em 
 
He  turned sixteen
Asus4 Asus4 
 
and suddenly he knows nothing,
Em Em 
 
A A 
 
D D 
 
an  d you know everything you
