When I was young, my Dad would say Come on Son let's go out and play

And I'd climb up the closet shelf When I was all by my-self 
G            D       C     Dsus4 D Em         D/F#     G   
Grab his hat and fix the brim      Pretending I    was him

No matter how hard I try

I still can't say good-bye

He always took care of Mom and me.   We all cut down a Christmas tree 
G          D        C        Dsus4 D Em D/F# G
 He always had some time for me

  Wind blows through the trees

Street lights, they still shine bright
C      D              Em   Em/D
  Most things are the same

No matter how hard I try

I still can't say good-bye
