Capo 2

Intro:
D Asus4 G D

D Asus4
He was thinkin' back when he was a kid
G D
His folks were divorced
D Asus4

His old man high on somethin'
D G
Came knockin' at the door
Em
His mama wouldn't talk to him
Em9
She said, "Boy, don't you let him in"
Em Em9
She was cussin' and pacin'
G D Asus4 G D
And wastin' her life at that linoleum floor

D Asus4
He took him back to his old apartment
G D
Turned off the TV
D Asus4
His beautiful broken hero on the couch
G D
Passed out asleep

Em
And he put him to bed
Em9
With tears in his eyes
Em (strum once) D Asus4 G D
He said, "Dad, I love you, goodbye"

(just repeats throughout the song)

He headed out into the night

Seventeen years old

Fired up that rusty old pickup

Turned his collar to the cold


And he headed back to Mama's place

Ready for his big escape

And he tiptoed up the stairs

And left a note in the cover's fold


It said, "Mom, I wish I could wave a wand

And make you smile again

Bring back the man who stole your heart

'Fore the demons got to him"


"If I stay here any longer

Somethin' sacred's gonna die"

He said, "Mom, I love you, goodbye"


Took a lot of wrong turns

On the road findin' his life

By the grace of God he ended up

With a boy and a wife


And the phone call came from his sister

'Twas that old familiar pain

His mother was at the doorstep

Of Heaven's pure white light


At the end of the service

His father came up to him

Clear eyed and sober now

He said, "Boy, Jesus took my sins"


"And I pray someday

Maybe you'll forgive me too"

With tears in his eyes

He said, "Son, I love you, goodbye"


His plane touched down in Texas

He pulled out his phone

Dialed in the number

Got the machine of his old man's home


He said, "Dad we got an extra room

And your grandson has your eyes"

Couldn't say anything else

'Cause he started to cry


And he choked out
Em Em9 G (strum once)
"Dad, I love you, goodbye
Em Em9 G
Dad, I love you, goodbye"

outro:

D Asus4 G D
