Sometimes he lets that boss get in his head
G# G#sus G# G#sus
He can’t past that mountain of deadlines on his desk
G# G#sus G# G#sus
5oclock he’s that last one out of the gate
G# G#sus G# G#sus
And he gets cut off flipped off ticked off out on the interstate
C# D#
And he wonders why this world won’t leave him alone
C#
Till he hears that little voice “daddy’s home"

She’s held on to that grudge all her life
G# G#sus
And thirty years of anger
G# G#sus
Since her dad walked out that night
G# G#sus G# G#sus
She thinks of all the moments that he's missed
G# G#sus
All the birthdays ballets first date
G# G#sus
That seems too much to forget
C# D#
She gets that call that said he don’t have long
C#
She walks in
He starts crying
The past is gone

D# C#
Yeah why didn’t I?
G# G#sus G# G#sus
Sometimes I take on this world by myself
G# G#sus
Thinking I got all the answers

To fall down on my knees surrender all
