Chords with lyrics
A augmentedA
There I was
BB
Ten years old
E MajorE A augmentedA E MajorE
Waiting in my room for him to come home
A augmentedA
And I just knew
BB
He'd be so mad
E MajorE A augmentedA E MajorE
Though I begged my mother not to, she told my dad
F#m7F#m7 A augmentedA BB
There was no denying I let him down
F#m7F#m7 A augmentedA BB
But instead of being angry, he put he arms around me
E MajorE
And said
E MajorE
In the sunlight or the rain
F#m7F#m7
Brightest nights or darkest days
A augmentedA BB
I'll always feel the same way
E MajorE
Whatever road you may be on
F#m7F#m7
Know you're never too far-gone
A augmentedA BB
My love is there wherever you may be
A augmentedA BB E MajorE
Just remember that you'll always be my baby
A augmentedA
There I was
BB
Twenty-one
E MajorE A augmentedA E MajorE
I was so ashamed of what I'd done
A augmentedA
On a country road
BB
Parked one night
E MajorE A augmentedA E MajorE
What started out so innocent crossed the line
F#m7F#m7 A augmentedA BB
There was no denying I had let God down
F#m7F#m7 A augmentedA BB
But instead of being angry, He let his love surround me
E MajorE
And I heard
A augmentedA
There he is
BB
My little man
E MajorE A augmentedA E MajorE
I'm sure he'll get in trouble every now and then
A augmentedA
And I pray to God
BB
That when he does
E MajorE A augmentedA E MajorE
I'll be just as understanding as my father was
F#m7F#m7 A augmentedA BB
'Cause the last thing that I wanna do is let him down
F#m7F#m7 A augmentedA BB
So instead of being angry, I'm gonna throw my arms
E MajorE
around him and Ill say
