Slide into F
       F                          G#                  D#                 
              F
To learn from past mistakes to crawl out of the hole I dug myself
                       G#                     D#
I should have learned by now I can't do it
CHORUS:
             C#                       D#*               X/G#G#G# 
X/G#G#G#
And the time it flies right past me now
   C#                            D#*                X/G#G#G#  X/G#G#G#
I pray that you would show me how
C#                     D#*                F*            D#* C#
You're the only one you're my father, I'm your son
                                     D#*                  G#
And with your love I'm sure it won't be long
VERSE:
F                G#                       D#
All I ever wanted was to feel as though you cared
F                        G#             D#
But as time has shown I see we are all too scared

(CHORUS)
F                                          G#
Faith in human beings never got me anywhere
        D#                              F
And here I stand with only you
F
Love is what you've shown me
        G#                                          D#                   
                       F
The only time I ever felt love was when you were standing next to me
