[Verse 1]
Em Am
Dear father, dear father, where are you?
F C E
Well I can't seem to recall your face
F C G Am G E Am
Mom says that you've gone to go die alone, while I suffer in this hell ridden place
Am
Are you selfish because you're not listening?
F C E
Are you blind because you don't understand? No, no
F Em G Am
Dear Father it's me who's asking for your sympathy,
F E Am
for I have no more room left to stand.
Am
Well I sat in the driveway for hours
F C G
For months, and for days, and for years with no end
F Em Am Em
Well I sat by the phone, sent letters to the unknown,
E Am
In hopes that I'd see you again
[Chorus]
Am F C G
Dear Father, why can't I see you? (Oh, oh)
Am F C G
Your name's not existent on this tongue anymore
F C G Am F E Am
Your face is just a shade, while your voice it still plays, on that record box that says forever yours
(forever yours)
Am F C G F C G
Am F E Am
[Verse 2]
Am
Dear daughter, dear daughter, I hear you
F C E F C
This voice is a fragment of your younger days, when the sky was still bright
G Am
And everything still seemed right
Em Am
Till they took that damn sunshine away
Am
I cry every time that I see you
F C E
In the pictures I have from oh so long ago
F C
Well I tried hard to fight
G Am
So everyday I'd say goodnight
F E Am
And good morning, I love you, don't let go
Am
Well your father did try hard to be there
F C E
His love still exists in everyday that you age
F G Am F E Am
Your father's a deadbeat, a bum, and a drunk, there's no room for that on life's stage
[Chorus]
Am F C G
Dear daughter I wish that I could see you (oh, oh)
Am F C G
But I went to go and straighten my shitty life out, just for yours
F C G Am
Went to school, and got a job, to learn how to stop being a slob
F E Am
Do you have that record box, that says forever yours? (Forever yours)
Am F C G F C G
Am F E Em Am
[Verse 3]
Am
Oh the day, oh the days keep on passing
F C G
Well I have no Idea what a god damn father is
F C G Am
I can't remember mine, but I guess that it's still fine
F E Am
cause it seems to me like he hates his kid
Am
(Well) I said that I would wait forever
F C G
But that was for some other man
F C G Am F E Am
One who swore that he cared, and he sang he'd be there, but he isn't so I finally washed my hands
Am
No more waiting, nor hoping, nor dreaming
F C G
No more clinging to your stupid, frivolous things
F C G Am
I've thrown them away to grow up and go play
F E Am
So in the trash is where your record box sings
Am
[Chorus]
Am F C G
Dear father, I cannot see you
Am F C G
But it's not in my interest to care anymore
F C G Am
Well I hate you I swear, I'm alone and I'm scared
F E Am
So I saved that record box that says forever yours (forever yours)
Am F C G F C G
Am F E Am
[Verse 4]
Am
My honey, my Valkyrie, my daughter
F C G
Your mother has finally called
F C G Am
Our contacts were lost, and for hours we fought
Am Em Am
But that pain has finally been resolved
Am
Well it's finally so good to hear you
F C G
You've grown quite a bit into a beautiful girl
F C G Am
Your mom sent me a photo and I can't help but cry
F E Am
'Cause darling you're my whole entire world
Am
I have so many stories to tell you
F C G
So many pictures, and books, and songs to be heard
F C G Am
I have millions for you that I saved up, yes it's true
F E Am
And I'll make it home I swear you have my word
[End verse, slowed + lethargic]
Am Am
Dear daughter, dear daughter, I'm sorry to tell you
F C E
For you be seeing me here anymore
F C G Am
For my car did a flip, while I was going 96
Am E Am
So my body has covered the floor
Am E Am
Well I hope that you never forget me
C G
And never forget that you were loved and that's for sure
F C G Am C Am
Well I know you'll get my things, and I know you'll hear me sing on that record box that says forever
C E
Record box that says forever
G E Am Em Am*
Record box that says forever yours, forever yours
