When he becomes a man he'll wonder where his childhood went
Bm                                            G
He'll feel the pain of life, choke his last breath
Bm                                                G
Life is no bed of roses, These things he will confess

D             D4  D                  D4       D           G  
He was cruel and crazy, she was beatiful she's been set free
Bm                                  G
Lines on her face, the pain of reality
Bm                                        G
He broke her heart, left then her alone to be

All this guilt he holds within, he let her slip away
D           D4 D            D4      D                     G
It's too late to say those things she needed to hear him say
Bm                                        G
He never said i love you, i want you to stay
Bm                                 G
He'd give his soul to relive that day

He heard his son singing
