[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
