C                    C/B         Am 
Oh, before they turn off all the lights 
                      Am7/G          F 
I won't read you your wrongs or your rights 
             C 
The time has gone 
                  C/B              Am 
I'll tell you goodnight, close the door 
           Am7/G         F 
Tell you I love you once more 
             C 
The time has gone 
           G 
So here it is

             F                  G 
I'm not your son, you're not my father 
           C             Cmaj9/B    Am 
We're just two grown men saying goodbye 
   F                   G 
No need to forgive, no need to forget 
       C             Cmaj9/B      Am 
I know your mistakes and you know mine 
F 
 And while you're sleeping, 
     G 
I'll try to make you proud 
   C                Cmaj9/B         Am 
So daddy, won't you just close your eyes? 
          F              G 
Don't be afraid, it's my turn 
                       C 
To chase the monsters away

C                    C/B      Am 
Oh, well I'll read a story to you 
                   Am7/G       F 
Only difference is this one is true 
             C 
The time has gone 
              C/B            Am 
I folded your clothes on the chair 
                 Am7/G          F 
I hope you sleep well, don't be scared 
             C 
The time has gone 
           G 
So here it is

             F                  G 
I'm not your son, you're not my father 
           C             Cmaj9/B    Am 
We're just two grown men saying goodbye

So daddy, won't you just close your eyes? 
          F              G 
Don't be afraid, it's my turn 
 
To chase the monsters away

C       Cmaj9/B 
Sleep a lifetime 
         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           Am      Am7/G 
I will be the last one, so I'll leave a light on 
          F     Am/E             G/D  G 
Let there be no darkness in your heart

             F                  G 
I'm not your son, you're not my father 
           C             Cmaj9/B    Am 
We're just two grown men saying goodbye

To chase the monsters away
