 Well I've been brave,  and I have been  there for my friends,
 and I've been enslaved  by stupid shit that should have surely  meant my end.
 Prior convictions,  while they will give  me no reprieve,
 I still try not  to contradict things I've believed.
 And sometimes  when I wake, the morning light,
 shows me the things that I've done right,
 tells me I'll make it through the day,
 (tells me I'll make it through the night).
 So if my dad  could see me now  would he be proud,
 that I've become  the man I am,  that I don't do  just what's allowed,
 that I mean every  word I say  to every face  that's in this crowd?
 so if you're listening,  I'll play it loud.
 And I've lashed out,  just like an animal  in pain,
 and I've looked everywhere  but me to point the blame,
 and I've been selfish,  and motivated  by my fears,
 and so impossible  to deal with through the years.
 And sometimes  when I hear that sad old song,
 it brings me right back to my wrongs,
 it brings me right back to despair,
 (right back to fuck it, I don't care).
 But sometimes  when I wake, the morning light,
 shows me the things that I've done right,
 tells me I'll make it through the day,
 (tells me I'll make it through the night).
 So if my dad  could see me now  would he be proud,
 that I've become  the man I am,  that I don't do  just what's allowed,
 that I mean every  word I say  to every face  that's in this crowd?
 so if you're listening,  I'll play it loud.
 So if my dad  could see me now  would he be proud,
 that I've become  the man I am,  that I don't do  just what's allowed?
 So just in case  there is a heaven,  and in case  you're looking down,
 in case you're listening,  I'll play it loud.
 In case you're listening,  old man,  I'll play it loud,
 yeah, I'll play it loud.
 And the Outro is just the intro, but everything is played two frets higher
 to match they key change.

Well I've been [D]brave, and I have [A]been there for my friends,
and I've been en[G]slaved by stupid shit that should have [A]surely meant my end.
Prior convict[D]ions, while they will [A]give me no reprieve,
I still try [G]not to contradict things I've be[A]lieved.

And [E]sometimes when I wake, the morning [G]light,
shows me the things that I've done [D]right,
tells me I'll make it through the [A]day,
(tells me I'll make it through the night).

So if my [D]dad could see me [A]now would he be [G]proud,
that I've [D]become the man I [A]am, that I don't [G]do just what's allowed,
that I mean [D]every word I [A]say to every [G]face that's in this crowd?
so if you're [D]listening, I'll play it [A]loud.

[repeat intro]

And I've lashed [D]out, just like an [A]animal in pain,
and I've looked [G]everywhere but me to point the [A]blame,
and I've been [D]selfish, and moti[A]vated by my fears,
and so im[G]possible to deal with through the [A]years.

And [E]sometimes when I hear that sad old [G]song,
it brings me right back to my [D]wrongs,
it brings me right back to des[A]pair,
(right back to fuck it, I don't care).
But [E]sometimes when I wake, the morning [G]light,
shows me the things that I've done [D]right,
tells me I'll make it through the [A]day,
(tells me I'll make it through the night).

So if my [D]dad could see me [A]now would he be [G]proud,
that I've [D]become the man I [A]am, that I don't [G]do just what's allowed,
that I mean [D]every word I [A]say to every [G]face that's in this crowd?
so if you're [D]listening, I'll play it [A]loud.

So if my [E]dad could see me [B]now would he be [A]proud,
that I've be[E]come the man I [B]am, that I don't [A]do just what's allowed?
So just in [E]case there is a [B]heaven, and in [A]case you're looking down,
in case you're [E]listening, I'll play it [B]loud.
In case you're [A]listening, old [E]man, I'll play it [B]loud,

yeah, I'll play it loud.

And the Outro is just the intro, but everything is played two frets higher
