Everything will soon turn black,   

so here's my letter.  
G          A        Bm  
To get it off my chest.  
Bm 
Promise father, don't look back,  

it's not for the better.  
G          A             Bm  
I know you tried your best.

Be strong and live your lives like I never could.

To hell!? Don't think you go there twice.
