this is a depressing , yet great song . really fun to sing and play .
i didn’t see a correct tab anywhere , so here it is .
i was nice enough to include the exact times when the parts come in too .

intro :

( 00 : 18 )
F#m D#5 D

( 00 : 31 )
A F#m D A

( 00 : 50 )
A
my father had dementia
C#m
he lied in bed for months
F#m
once in a while he’d call me
Dm
and ask me to fly down
Bm
i told him that i’d love to
D
but i had things to do
A A/G# F#m
and so he died without his son
Bm D
i heard about it drunk after a show

( 1 : 14 )

A
my mother battled cancer
C#m
for over seven years
F#m
i nursed her and i held her
Dm
when time was running out
Bm
the night before she left me
D
i drank scotch all night
A A/G# F#m
and thanked her for everything she’d done
Bm D
raising me alone wasn’t much fun

( 1 : 37 )

A
so dad i can forgive you ,
E
but i’ll never forget ,
Bm D
months i wouldn’t see you and when i did you’d be
A
out with your friends all night
E
alone and only nine
Bm
i watched the outer limits
D
while scared out of my mind
A
i wonder if you felt the same
A/G#
the days before you died
F#m
i wonder if you even knew

why i wouldn’t come around
Bm
i bet if you had been there ,

there wouldn’t be this song

A A/G#
2006
F#m
goodbye parents
D
for once sincere

2006 my orphan year
