[C] [C/B] [Am] [Am7/G] [F]
Verse 1
[C] [C/B] [Am]
Oh, before they turn off all the lights
[Am7/G] [F]
I won't read you your wrongs or your rights
[C]
The time has gone
[C/B] [Am]
I'll tell you goodnight, close the door
[Am7/G] [F]
Tell you I love you once more

The time has gone
[G]
So here it is
Chorus
[F] [G]
I'm not your son, you're not my father
[C] [Em7/B] [Am]
We're just two grown men saying goodbye
[F] [G]
No need to forgive, no need to forget
[C] [Em7/B] [Am]
I know your mistakes and you know mine
[F]
And while you're sleeping,
[G]
I'll try to make you proud
[C] [Em7/B] [Am]
So daddy, won't you just close your eyes?
[F] [G]
Don't be afraid, it's my turn
[C]
To chase the monsters away
Verse 2
[C] [C/B] [Am]
Oh, well I'll read a story to you
[Am7/G] [F]
Only difference is this one is true
[C]
The time has gone
[C/B] [Am]
I folded your clothes on the chair
[Am7/G] [F]
I hope you sleep well, don't be scared
[C]
The time has gone
[G]
So here it is

[F] [G]
I'm not your son, you're not my father

I'll try to make you proud
[C] [Em7/B] [Am]
So daddy, won't you just close your eyes?
[F] [G]
Don't be afraid, it's my turn
To chase the monsters away
Bridge
[C] [Em7/B]
Sleep a lifetime
[Am] [Am7/G]
Yes, and breathe a last word
[F] [Am/E] [G/D] [G]
You can feel my hand on your own
[C] [Em7/B] [Am] [Am7/G]
I will be the last one, so I'll leave a light on
[F] [Am/E] [G/D] [G]
Let there be no darkness in your heart
