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