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