Lyrics
em7, c g
half a man lying there bleeding from his faith
smoked 2 packs a day and drank a case
been trying to kill himself since 1972
but instead he was killing me and you
killing me and you
a waste a shame the man was so talented
all I ever wanted was for him to be my dad
all I ever got was the backside of his hand
the cycle ends here when you leave this land
you are leaving this land
am f c
you can die if you want to
your grandchildren never will they see you
hope you get what you came for
next time you need to love a little more
I said goodbye to my father today
wrote a song that forever I will play
hurts like hell on this rainy day
tears and raindrops begin to go away
begin to go away
the end is near sounds slowly fade away
get down on my knees and I begin to pray
thank the lord for this rainy day
maybe it will wash the pain away
wash the pain away
am f c
you can die if you want to
your grand daughter never will she see you
hope you get what you came for
next time leave your luggage at the door
send it back c.o.d. throw it overboard
return to sender its not yours anymore
half a man lying there bleeding from his faith
smoked 2 packs a day and drank a case
been trying to kill himself since 1972
but instead he was killing me and you
killing me and you
a waste a shame the man was so talented
all I ever wanted was for him to be my dad
all I ever got was the backside of his hand
the cycle ends here when you leave this land
you are leaving this land
am f c
you can die if you want to
your grandchildren never will they see you
hope you get what you came for
next time you need to love a little more
I said goodbye to my father today
wrote a song that forever I will play
hurts like hell on this rainy day
tears and raindrops begin to go away
begin to go away
the end is near sounds slowly fade away
get down on my knees and I begin to pray
thank the lord for this rainy day
maybe it will wash the pain away
wash the pain away
am f c
you can die if you want to
your grand daughter never will she see you
hope you get what you came for
next time leave your luggage at the door
send it back c.o.d. throw it overboard
return to sender its not yours anymore
