Song by Everclear

D D
Father of mine

Tell me where have you been?

You know I just closed by eyes

My whole world disappeared

Take me back to the day

Yeah, when I was still your golden boy
Em Em
Back before you went away
D D A A
I remember blue skies walking the block

I loved it when you held me high
Em Em
I loved to hear you talk

That's so hard to reach

Tell me what do you see?
G G
When you look back at your wasted life
Em Em
And you don't see me
D D
I was ten years old
A A
Doin' all that I could
G G Em Em
It wasn't easy for me to be a scared white boy
In a black neighborhood
D D A A
Sometimes you would send me a birthday card
With a five dollar bill
G G
I never understood you then
Em Em
And I guess I never will

All the pain I have known
