O dad, your views in life
   (C)                  (D)
Tell me how they came to be
Well see, I didn’t know my father
Like the way that you know me
Son, life is just too short
For us to never be in touch
So that’s why I wanna tell you
That I love you very much
(C)                   (D)          (C)     (G)

You'll make mistakes of your own
