D A#
What did she do to you sir?
F* C
Can't you see that you are twice the size of her?
D A#
It's not like she can stand up
F* C
When you beat her down with your love
D A#
Turn around and hear his screams as you toss his mom around
F* C
He sees his loving father beating mommy down
D A#
You threw me into the wall and you told me to shut up
F* C A# - C
That's what ignited me and then I blew up
A# - C
Why can't I forget?

Daddy dearest, I love you, please return it back

Christian family, we once were, do you still blame me?

Daddy dearest, you left me, nowhere to be found
D A# F* F6* D R1
Christian family, we still are, forgive and forget
D A#
Dad you are still in my prayers
F* C
Even though, when I needed you you weren't there
D A#
Your daughter would also like to
F* C
Once again, just be called a princess by you
D A#
She cried so hard that she couldn't breathe, but you didn't even know
F* C
And if you did, you were too involved in yourself to show
D A#
So I went to comfort her and to see if she was okay
F* C A# - C
That's when you decided to leave us, then you ran away
A# - C
Why can't I forget?
D A# F* F6*-F*-F6*
Daddy dearest, you weren't there, when she cried to you
D A# F* F6*-F*-F6*

Daddy dearest, my mentor, I still weep for you
D A# F* F6* D R1
Christian father, maybe so, now my dad is God. Now my dad is God

So long, no goodbyes from you, did I hear at all
Father, how I wish you well, in this world of fools
