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