 Never thought Id be this cold again, December found me here 
              D            C 
and Januarys waiting, but youre not waiting here 
G                              D               C 
I must say, I long to see the day when I see flowers on your grave 
G                    D          C 
 I long to see that day cause you will know no pain

 The hands that held me proud when I was just a child they cannot hold me now

The hands that could not wrap around one finger are fumbling with this pencil

I should write you something as a tribute to your life, something grand and majestic loved us all so well 
G                       D                           C 
 But there is nothing story book or epic about the father of my father does to a child

 You spend your life giving
