[Verse 1]
C                    C/B  
Oh, before they turn off 
        Am
all the lights
                      Am7/G 
I won't read you your wrongs 
        F
or your rights
             C
The time has gone
                  C/B    
I'll tell you goodnight, 
          Am
close the door
           Am7/G         F
Tell you I love you once more
             C
The time has gone
           G
So here it is
 
 
[Chorus]
             F  
I'm not your son, 
              G
you're not my father
           C             
We're just two grown men 
Cmaj9/B    Am
saying goodbye
   F              
No need to forgive, 
   G
no need to forget
       C             
I know your mistakes 
Cmaj9/B      Am
and you know mine
F
 And while you're sleeping,
     G
I'll try to make you proud
   C         
So daddy, 
          Cmaj9/B         Am
won't you just close your eyes?
          F              G
Don't be afraid, it's my turn
                       C
To chase the monsters away
 
 
[Verse 2]
C                    C/B      Am
Oh, well I'll read a story to you
                   Am7/G 
Only difference is this 
       F
one is true
             C
The time has gone
              C/B            Am
I folded your clothes on the chair
                 Am7/G 
I hope you sleep well, 
         F
don't be scared
             C
The time has gone
           G
So here it is
 
 
[Chorus]
             F       
I'm not your son, 
              G
you're not my father
           C             
We're just two grown men 
Cmaj9/B    Am
saying goodbye
   F               
No need to forgive, 
   G
no need to forget
       C             
I know your mistakes 
Cmaj9/B      Am
and you know mine

 And while you're sleeping,

         Am        Am7/G
Yes, and breathe a last word
        F       Am/E         G/D  G
You can feel my hand on your own
       C      Cmaj9/B   
I will be the last one, 
        Am      Am7/G
so I'll leave a light on

in your heart

We're just two grown men
