5 AM bags are packed

Don't know when he's coming back home again

Gives the kids a kiss goodbye

Wishing there's something that
G
She can do other than hold him
A
He wiped her eyes, said "It's time."
G A
Under the doorway she told him
[Chorus]
G A
Call me when you get there
Bm D
Tell me you got there safe
G A
I'll be waitin' right here
Bm D
Can't wait to hear you say
G
That everything is goin' fine
A
You made it there and you're alive
Bm A D
Ya know I'll be missin' your face
G A
See you soon and take care
G A Bm A
'N call me when you get there

She's seventeen, college bound
G
Doesn't need her dad around no more

His heart's about to leave his chest

Crazy how fast they get older

Seems like it was yesterday

That he first got to hold her

He wiped her eyes, said "It's time."

Under the doorway he told her

Sixty years side by side

If you go first," he told her
