[Verse 1] G Oh, before they turn off
Em
all the lights
I won't read you your wrongs Am or your rights G The time has gone I'll tell you goodnight,
Em
close the door Am Tell you I love you once more G The time has gone D So here it is [Chorus] Am I'm not your son,
D
you're not my father G We're just two grown men
( D) Em
saying goodbye Am No need to forgive,
D
no need to forget G I know your mistakes
(D ) Em
and you know mine Am And while you're sleeping, D I'll try to make you proud G So daddy,
(D ) Em
won't you just close your eyes? Am D Don't be afraid, it's my turn G To chase the monsters away
[Verse 2] G Em Oh, well I'll read a story to you Am Only difference is this one is true G The time has gone Em I folded your clothes on the chair I hope you sleep well,
Am
don't be scared G The time has gone D So here it is [Chorus] Am I'm not your son,
D
you're not my father G We're just two grown men
( D ) Em
saying goodbye Am No need to forgive,
D
no need to forget G I know your mistakes
( D ) Em
and you know mine Am And while you're sleeping, D I'll try to make you proud G So daddy,
( D ) Em
won't you just close your eyes? Am D Don't be afraid, it's my turn G To chase the monsters away [Bridge] G Sleep a lifetime Em Yes, and breathe a last word Am D You can feel my hand on your own G I will be the last one,
Em
so I'll leave a light on Am D Let there be no darkness in your heart [Chorus] Am I'm not your son,
D
you're not my father G We're just two grown men
(D) Em
saying goodbye Am No need to forgive,
D
no need to forget G I know your mistakes
(D) Em
and you know mine Am And while you're sleeping, D I'll try to make you proud G So daddy,
( D ) Em
won't you just close your eyes? Am D Don't be afraid, it's my turn G To chase the monsters away
