Dear Dad, I know youâ??re proud of me even though youâ??ve never said it well
            D       E      A
I know you are, and I know that talking can be hard

And I think Iâ??ve proven myself to be naturally responsible
      D       E       A                       D        
And I want my mustang back.  I want to cruise down Kirkwood,
E                   A
Make the other cruisers envy me

          E                            A
I want to rip down the highways, leave a cloud of jealousy
            D                        E
The car was nothing but a junk heap, when you bought it for me when I was 
A
Fourteen

We fixed it up together, and honestly I think you can fix anything

E                           A
And I know youâ??re proud of me because Iâ??m living my dreams
   D             E            A                E           A
So please, please, please, donâ??t worry about me.  Please donâ??t worry about me

     A 
Dear mom, I know that youâ??re afraid
                      D       E       A
Youâ??ve got every right to be, growing up with nothing to born to have a dream

And I know thereâ??s a crook inside of you, just dying to get out
              D                E              A                     D
And you would hide me from the cops, if they came knocking at your house
             E                            A
You would drive my getaway car, thatâ??s just the way you are


Youâ??ve gotta mothers heart
                       D
Youâ??ve gotta mothers heart
                       E
Youâ??ve gotta mothers heart
                       A
Youâ??ve gotta mothers heart

A                             D
And Iâ??m sorry that Iâ??ve always forgot your birthday
          E 
And you never forgot mine
         A                                      D
And Iâ??m sorry that I havenâ??t given you any grandkids
          E                        A
And Iâ??m sorry that I donâ??t have a wife
          E                   A             D             E           A
And Iâ??m sorry that the way I live my life, isnâ??t the way you think is right
                       D               E            A
But youâ??ve raised me well, and I think I came out alright

E                                  A
Even though your ashamed of me for being such a thief
       E                             A
Well I know you still love me, and I admire your honesty

   D               E       A                 D
So please, please, please, donâ??t worry about me
             E           A
Please donâ??t worry about me
