My mother battled cancer

For over seven years

The night before she left me
         D
I drank scotch all night
And thanked her for 
A    E/G#        F#m
everything she'd done
Bm
Raising me alone
            D
wasn't much fun

   A
So Dad I can forgive you 
    E
But I'll never forget 
Bm
Months I wouldn't see you 
    D
and when I did You'd be 
A
out with your friends all
       E
night Alone and only nine
  Bm
I watched the outer limits
       D
While scared out of my mind


Bridge:
  A
I wonder if you felt the same
                        E/G#
The days before you died
  F#m
I wonder if you even knew
                          E
Why I wouldn't come around

I bet if you had been there
There wouldn't be this song
