Father Of Mine Acoustic

[D]    Father of mine
Tell me where have you been?                     [G]
You know I just closed by eyes                    [Em]
My whole world disappeared                       [D]
Father of mine           [F#]
Take me back to the day                 [G]
Yeah, when I was still your golden boy                         [Em]
Back before you went away                     [D]

[D]    Father of mine       [F#]
Tell me what do you see?                   [G]
When you look back at your wast[Em]ed life
And you don't see me            [D]

(Palm mute)
[D]I was ten years old         [F#]
Doin' all that I could         [G]
It wasn't easy for me to be a scared white boy [Em]
In a bl[D]ack neighborhood
[D]Sometimes you would send me a birthday card         [F#]
With a five dollar bill          [G]
I never understood you th[Em]en
And I guess I never will            [D]

Tell me how do you sleep?                   [G]
With the children you abandoned              [Em]
And the wife I saw you beat                   [D]
I will never be safe           [F#]
I will never be sane           [G]
I will always be weird inside        [Em]
I will always be lame          [D]
Now I'm a grown man                [F#]
With a child of my own            [G]
And I swear, I'll never let her know  [Em]
