Verse:

D          A              G/D
Got up and left without a warning.
  D        A         G/D
A pregnant woman, on Easter morning.
         D                 A
You were never anything to miss.
      G/D
Cause to me you did not exist.
             D                      A                G/D
But for that woman and that boy you left, I'm saying this,
             D                      A                G/D
But for that woman and that boy you left, I'm saying this.


Chorus:
              Em                  G
I'll wear the bright pink tie you wore that day
               D                    A
I'll make the promises you failed to make
            Em               G
I'll be the man you'll never be
              D            A
And you won't be around to see
    Bm            G
The man my Mother made of me
     D               A
With love my Brother set me free
        Em                   G
I'll be the man you'll never be
                D  A         
And you'll have no part of this family

Interlude: D  A  G/D  2x

Verse:
D           A                 G/D
Your body's failing, heart is breaking
D                  A                G/D
But you're too far gone now, you're not worth saving
          Bm              A                 G
You never put yourself aside, you just keep bringing seed to life
           Bm              A               G
So I won't be at your bedside to watch you close your eyes and die
           Bm              A               G/D
So I won't be at your bedside to hold your hand and say Goodbye

I'll make the promises you failed to make
            Em               G
I'll be the man you'll never be
              D            A
And you won't be around to see
    Bm            G/D
The man my Mother made of me
     D                A
With love my Brother set me free
        Em                   G
I'll be the man you'll never be
                D  A         
And you'll have no part...

Bridge:

D  A  G
No      But I'd make your proud
    D  A  G
But No      you're nowhere to be found
D  A  G
No      Maybe you'll live it down
D  A  G
No       The day that you skipped town.
