And the bottom dropped out
A C-D-D
My father was broken, like the rest

And I can still see his hands

Certain things that you depend upon

There are places I can go

Have their eyes become too blind to see
A Bm
How much their hearts have changed (how much their hearts have changed)

How much their hearts have changed
