[VERSE 1]
G# A#m D# G#
These days my life seems somehow like a tired old cliché
A#m D# G#
A# bad movie scene that just goes on and on
A#m D# G#
With dialogue like " It's so sad how fast time slips away"
A#m D# G#
Or "You never really miss them until they're gone"
A#m D# G#
Funny how those old clichés come true
A#m C# D#
I never thought I'd miss him, but I do
[CHORUS]
G# A#m G# A#m D#
My father died in summer, and all he left behind
G# A#m G# Cm A#m D#
Were little scraps of paper, little scraps of rhyme
A#m D# G#
I read them and felt something inside me break
Cm A#m D#
And angrily cried out "Too late, too late!"
G# Cm A#m D#
Surely there must be something better?
G# Cm A#m D#
Surely there must be something better?
[VERSE 2]
G# A#m D# G#
He and I were always strangers, searching for someone
A#m D# G#
I was looking for a hero, and he a friend
A#m D# G#
So while I searched for my father, he was looking for his son
A#m D# G#
And strangers we remained until the end
A#m D# G#
But the man who wrote his heart into these rhymes
A#m C# D#
I know that he could have been a good friend of mine
[CHORUS]
G# A#m G# A#m D#
My father died in summer, and all he left behind
G# A#m G# Cm A#m D#
Were little scraps of paper, little scraps of rhyme
A#m D# G#
I read them and felt something inside me break
Cm A#m D#
And angrily cried out "Too late, too late!"
G# Cm A#m D#
Surely there must be something better?
G# Cm A#m D#
Surely there must be something better?
[VERSE 3]
G# A#m D# G#
So I sit here where he lived and died as the ghosts around me weave
A#m D# G#
And the evening shadows lengthen on the wall
A#m D# G#
And in this dark and empty room it's easy to believe
A#m D# G#
That he never, really lived at all
A#m D# G#
But the little scraps of paper in my hand
A#m C# D#
Prove he lived to me — a father and a man
[CHORUS]
G# A#m G# A#m D#
My father died in summer, and all he left behind
G# A#m G# Cm A#m D#
Were little scraps of paper, little scraps of rhyme
A#m D# G#
I read them and felt something inside me break
Cm A#m D#
And angrily cried out "Too late, too late!"
G# Cm A#m D#
Surely there must be something better?
G# Cm A#m D#
Surely there must be something better?
