       G# | C# | C#

G#                   Cm          Fm
Oh, before they turn off all the lights,
I won’t read you:
     G#             C#
Your wrongs or your rights.
             G#
The time has gone.
                  Cm               Fm
I’ll tell you goodnight, close the door,
            G#             C#
Tell you “I love you” once more.
             G#
The time has gone,
           Eb
So here it is:

Chorus:
                  C#
     I’m not your son,
                   Eb
     You’re not my father.
                G#
     We’re just two grown men
     Cm7        Fm
     Saying goodbye.
        C#
     No need to forgive,
        Eb
     No need to forget;
            G#
     I know your mistakes
     Cm7          Fm
     And you know mine.

    C#
     And while you’re sleeping,
          Eb
     I’ll try to make you proud.
         G#
     So, daddy, won’t you
     Cm7             Fm
     Just close your eyes?
               C#              Eb
     Don’t be afraid, it’s my turn
                            G#
     To chase the monsters away.

G#                   Cm       Fm
Oh, well I’ll read a story to you;
                   G#          C#
Only difference is this one is true.
             G#
The time has gone.
              Cm             Fm
I folded your clothes on the chair.
                 G#             C#
I hope you sleep well. Don’t be scared.
             G#
The time has gone,
           Eb
So here it is:

Chorus:
                  C#
     I’m not your son,
                   Eb
     You’re not my father.
                G#
     We’re just two grown men
     Cm7        Fm
     Saying goodbye.
        C#
     No need to forgive,
        Eb
     No need to forget;
            G#
     I know your mistakes
     Cm7          Fm
     And you know mine.

    C#
     And while you’re sleeping,
          Eb
     I’ll try to make you proud.
         G#
     So, daddy, won’t you
     Cm7             Fm
     Just close your eyes?
               C#             Eb
     Don’t be afraid, it’s my turn
                            G#
     To chase the monsters away.

Bridge:
   G#      Cm7  
   Sleep a lifetime,
            Fm        Eb6
   Yes, and breathe a last word.
           C#      Fm7          Eb  
   You can feel my hand on your own.

Instrumental: Eb | Eb | Eb | Eb

          G#     Cm7  
   I will be the last one,
           Fm      Eb6
   So I’ll leave a light on.
             C#    Fm7  
   Let there be no darkness
           Eb  
   In your heart.

Instrumental: Eb | Eb | Eb | Eb

Chorus:
                      C#
     But I’m not your son,
                   Eb
     You’re not my father.
                G#
     We’re just two grown men
     Cm7        Fm
     Saying goodbye.
        C#
     No need to forgive,
        Eb
     No need to forget;
            G#
     I know your mistakes
     Cm7          Fm
     And you know mine.

    C#
     And while you’re sleeping,
          Eb
     I’ll try to make you proud.
         G#
     So, daddy, won’t you
     Cm7             Fm
     Just close your eyes?

     Don’t be afraid, it’s my turn
                            G#
     To chase the monsters away.
