[Verse 1]
     Em9       D* Dsus2              Cadd9
Hey dad,                I’m  writing  to  you
Em9      D* Dsus2         Cadd9
Not  to   tell  you  that  I  still  hate  you
Em9      D* Dsus2            Cadd9
Just  to  ask  you  how  you  feel  
              Cadd9
And  how  we  fell  apart
           Cadd9       (stop)
How  this  fell  apart.

          Em9     D* Dsus2              Cadd9
Are  you  happy    out  there  in  this  great  wide  world
       Em9             D* Dsus2     Cadd9
Do you think about your sons  do you miss  your little girl           
           Em9       D* Dsus2           Cadd9                 
When  you  lay  your  head  down    how  do  you  sleep  at  night
         Em9     D* Dsus2             Cadd9
Do  you  even     wonder  if  we’re  alright? 
              Cadd9
But  we’re  alright,     we’re alright


[Chorus]
               G
It's  been  a  long  road  without  you  by  my  side  
Cadd9
Why  weren’t  you   there  all  the  nights  that  we  cried 
     G
You  broke  my  mother’s  heart, you  broke  your  children  for  life
      Cadd9
It's  not  ok,    but  we’re  alright 
     G
I  remember  the  days  you  were  a  hero  in  my  eyes  
     Cadd9
But  those  are  just  a  long  lost  memory  of  mine
          G
I  spent  so  many  years  learning  how  to  survive
        Cadd9                                              (stop)
Now I’m writing  just to let  you  know  we’re still alive.


[Verse 2]
     Em9     D* Dsus2      Cadd9
The  days  I  spent  so     cold  so  hungry
      Em9      D* Dsus2          Cadd9 
Were  full  of  hate           I  was  so  angry
     Em9        D* Dsus2            Cadd9
The  scars  run  deep  inside  this  tattooed  body
         Em9          D* Dsus2      Cadd9 
There’s  things  I’ll  take  to  my  grave
          Cadd9
But  I’m  ok                   I’m  okayyy


[Chorus]
               G
It's  been  a  long  road  without  you  by  my  side  
Cadd9
Why  weren’t  you   there  all  the  nights  that  we  cried 
     G
You  broke  my  mother’s  heart, you  broke  your  children  for  life
      Cadd9
It's  not  ok,    but  we’re  alright 
     G
I  remember  the  days  you  were  a  hero  in  my  eyes  
     Cadd9
But  those  are  just  a  long  lost  memory  of  mine
          G
I  spent  so  many  years  learning  how  to  survive
        Cadd9                        
Now I’m writing  just to let  you  know  we’re still alive.
