Verse 1
-------

Ab5
Staring at the wall,

I never thought this would be so hard.

How could have I been so close and never known you?

I never knew, I never knew you at all!

You will always be my father but I hope you know,

It's your fault and I'll never know what that means.

You left a void that never could be replaced.

I am dying inside but you will never see!

Pre Chorus
----------

Ab5  C#5  E5          F#5
    I     always had hoped that you
Ab5  C#5     E5          F#5    
     Did not want it this way,
Ab5         C#5        E5      F#5      
     But no matter how hard I try you always
Ab5        C#5
Pushed me away.
Eb5
   You said you loved me but...

Chorus
------

Ab5     F#5            E5
How was I supposed to know? (How was I supposed to know)
     Ab5   
When you left me here,
F#5                E5
You left me here alone?
C#5           B5               F#5
    Do I ever even cross your mind,
Ab5
Just for second?
C#5        B5         Eb5
    Do you know I'm alive?

Verse 2
-------

Ab5
You know I would let you in but you threw everything away.

So tell me what did you get from all of these years of pain?

You have no clue what I've been through, 

But I guess that you wanted it that way!


(Chorus)


Breakdown
---------

Ab5                  E5                         Ab5
If you would've been there, (If you would have been there)
Ab5                   E5                          Ab5
If you would've stuck around, (If you would have stuck around)
Ab5
If you would've been there when I needed you,

You would've been
Ab5
You would've been so proud!


(Chorus)
