Bb            G
Only two more days,
G          F
Until your birthday,
F     Eb            Bb
Yesterday was mine.
Bb                 G
You'll be turning five,
G               F
And I know what it's like,
F
Growing up with out your,
Eb
Father in your life.

[Pre-Chorus]
G          F
So I pretend,
F   Bb          Eb
I'm doing all I can,
Eb    G
And I hope someday you'll,
F               Eb
Find it in your heart,
G        F
To understand,
F   Bb         Eb
Why I'm not around,
Eb  G
And forgive me for not,
F              Eb
Being in your life.

[Chorus](Play twice)
Bb5/9
I remember waiting, for you to come,
G5/9
Remember waiting for you to call,
F5/9                                      Eb
Remember waiting there to find nothing at all...

Maybe someday,

Not just what is wed to you.
Bb               G
I pray I get the chance,

To make it up to you,
F
We've got a lot of,
Eb
Catching up to do.
