==VERSE==
E
I recall
C#m Amaj9 E
A time when you and I would talk a little more
C#m Amaj9 E
To each other face to face, through love and war
C#m Bsus2 A E
When I knew there would always be an open door for me
E C#m Amaj9 E
But I know, that home is just some place I always leave behind
C#m Amaj9 E
It's with me everywhere I go when I close my eyes
C#m Bsus2 A
I know someday I'll catch you in the by and by
E E
I know, I know
A E
Dear mother, I know I have been away for far too long
A E
Dear mother, I hope you understand it when you hear this song
C#m Bsus2 A
Cause you taught me how to be right in a world gone wrong
E
Gone wrong
==VERSE==
E C#m Amaj9 E
But it ain't, it ain't how long you live, it's how you live your life
C#m Amaj9 E
Burn bright until the grave don't shy away from the light
C#m Bsus2 A
Cause I won't waste my days, I will use my time
E E
My time, my time
A E
Dear father, I know I have been away for far too long
A E
Dear father, I hope you understand it when you hear this song
C#m Bsus2 A
Cause you taught me how to be right in a world gone wrong
E
Gone wrong
==VERSE==
E
I recall
C#m Amaj9 E
A time when you and I would talk a little more
C#m Amaj9 E
To each other face to face, through love and war
C#m Bsus2 A E
Well I hope there will always be an open door for me
