Intro: :3/4: B | B | B
       Ebm | G#m | G#m | G#m
       B | E | E

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

Chorus:
                  E
     I’m not your son,
                   F#
     You’re not my father.
                B
     We’re just two grown men
     Ebm7       G#m
     Saying goodbye.
        E
     No need to forgive,
        F#
     No need to forget;
            B
     I know your mistakes
     Ebm7         G#m
     And you know mine.

    E
     And while you’re sleeping,
          F#
     I’ll try to make you proud.
         B
     So, daddy, won’t you
     Ebm7            G#m
     Just close your eyes?
               E               F#
     Don’t be afraid, it’s my turn
                            B
     To chase the monsters away.

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

Chorus:
                  E
     I’m not your son,
                   F#
     You’re not my father.
                B
     We’re just two grown men
     Ebm7       G#m
     Saying goodbye.
        E
     No need to forgive,
        F#
     No need to forget;
            B
     I know your mistakes
     Ebm7         G#m
     And you know mine.

    E
     And while you’re sleeping,
          F#
     I’ll try to make you proud.
         B
     So, daddy, won’t you
     Ebm7            G#m
     Just close your eyes?
               E              F#
     Don’t be afraid, it’s my turn
                            B
     To chase the monsters away.

Bridge:
   B       Ebm7 
   Sleep a lifetime,
            G#m       F#6
   Yes, and breathe a last word.
           E       G#m7         F#  
   You can feel my hand on your own.

Instrumental: F# | F# | F# | F#

          B      Ebm7 
   I will be the last one,
           G#m     F#6
   So I’ll leave a light on.
             E     G#m7 
   Let there be no darkness
           F#  
   In your heart.

Instrumental: F# | F# | F# | F#

Chorus:
                      E
     But I’m not your son,
                   F#
     You’re not my father.
                B
     We’re just two grown men
     Ebm7       G#m
     Saying goodbye.
        E
     No need to forgive,
        F#
     No need to forget;
            B
     I know your mistakes
     Ebm7         G#m
     And you know mine.

    E
     And while you’re sleeping,
          F#
     I’ll try to make you proud.
         B
     So, daddy, won’t you
     Ebm7            G#m
     Just close your eyes?
               E              F#
     Don’t be afraid, it’s my turn
                            B
     To chase the monsters away.
