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