Intro:
C G Am Em F  G

Verse 1:
C                          Am
Dad I'll ever put this on a record
C    F                G
It's more a letter to you
C                  G                    Am
I remeber all them nights that we spent together
C               F             G
I remeber every single I love you
C                             Am
Hell you're better off without me
Em       F           G
But I'll always have you
C     G            Am
In my heart and in my memory
         C              F               G
And I'll keep you there til my days are few

Chorus:
F           G                Am
So lay your head down on this pillow
F       G        C
Let him hold you tight
F                 G            C     Am
Because he didn't hurt you the way I did
F          G              C
And I just wish I was him tonight

Instrumental:
G Am Em F  G

Verse 2:
C                       Am
And I heard you took up drinking
Em          F                G
I guess you learned that from me
C                  Am
I was always gonna quit somehow
Em     F          G
When I started my family
C                            Am
We were on the verge of that happiness
Em         F              G
Why did it have to end so soon
C                        Am
Dad'll ever put this on a record
      C                     F            G
It'll sound just right in a smoke filled room

Chorus:
F           G                 Am
So lay your head down on this pillow
F       G        C
Let him hold you tight
F                 G            C     Am
Because he didn't hurt you the way I did
F          G              C
And I just wish I was him tonight

Instrumental:
Am Em F  G

Bridge:
F            G            Am
Wish I had a chance to go back
F        G           Am
If I did I'd make it right
F           G                     Am
But I don't expect you to believe that
F         G        Am
After all you twice shy
              F           G                    C
And I'm still standing on the fighting side of time

Chorus:
F           G                 Am
So lay your head down on this pillow
F       G        C
Let him hold you tight
F                 G           C      Am
Because he didn't hurt you the way I did
F          G              C
And I just wish I was him tonight
