[Versetto]
                                       C 
Father, father, tell me where have you been? 
                             Em 
Its been hell not having you here 
                         C 
I've been missing you so bad and you don't seem to care 
     G             C  Em                C 
When I go to sleep at night, you're not there 
     G             C  Em            C 
When I go to sleep at night, do you care? 
Em                                      G 
Do you even miss us? Your bottle's your mistress 
C 
I need to know, I need to know
[Ritornello]
Em                         C 
Why are you walking away? 
       G 
Was it something I did? Did I make a mistake cause 
    Em                        C 
I'm trying to deal with the pain 
  G 
I don't understand this, is this how it is? 
Em              C  G 
I will try to understand
[Versetto]
G                             C       Em

Its been hell not having you 
G                                           C        Em 
Last thing I heard, you were fed up, you're skipping town 
        C 
With no note telling where 
     G             C  Em                C 
When I go to sleep at night, you're not there 
     G             C  Em            C 
When I go to sleep at night, do you care? 
Em 
I need to know, I need to know
[Ritornello]

I'm trying to deal with the pain 
  G 
I don't understand this, is this how it is? 
Em                     C 
Why are you running away? 
  G 
I don't understand this, is this how it is?

[Versetto]
      G                                       C 
Spent seven years wishing that you'd drop the line 
      Em                                     C 
But I carry the thought along with you in my mind 
       G                       C 
But is this what you call a family? 
   Em                       C   G 
Is this what you call a family? 
   Em 
Family!
