Intro D Bm A G D D Bm7 A G D [Verse 1] Bm A G D Daddy can you hear me? Can you see me? Can you free me? Bm I'm shackled to your memory A G D Am I everything that you thought I'd be? D Dm A G D The day you laid your armor down and took your last breath just keeps replaying now D A I'm doing my best to be strong for everyone around G D But tonight I'm breaking down D A G D Thinking 'bout the lessons you taught, you got your point across with the ways you talked D A G D I watched you move mountains to me, but then I watched you struggle to walk Dm Bm And every day burns like the last one A G D Hope you forgive me for the times I was a bad son D Dm Bm A D D But Lord, you took my hero from me when you know I only had one ((one) [Pre-Chorus] D Dm A That was my heart you broke G D That was my friend you stole D Bm That was the man..... A G That made me who I am...... D Bm A Now you see this mask I wear G Out in the sun's despair D Bm Goodbye plans A G And I guess I'll never understand...... Chorus D Bm Still my hero..... D G Still my hero..... D Bm Still my hero..... D G Still my hero..... [Instrumental] D Bm D G [Verse 2] D Bm Some days I sit and reminisce and I think of the past A G How do we lose something we love and it just happens in a flash? D Bm It's just the cycle of life, I swear it happened so fast A G You watched me take my first breath, I watched you take your last D Dm Last night I couldn't sleep so I got up and took me a ride Bm A G I took a drive through Antioch, I smoked a joint, and I cried D Bm I watched you stare death in the face without a fear in your eyes A G You taught me how I should live, you taught me how I should die D Bm Wish I could have the strength you had as you laid there on that bed A G Staring at death, I remember every word that you said D Bm Without a hint of bitterness, you sat there shaking your head A G Laughing and telling stories about the life you had led D Bm While you was alive is when we gave you flowers A G You taught me love is the way a man stays in power D Bm You taught me always be brave and stay away from cowards A G I only wish that Heaven had visitation hours D Bm I can't lie, me and my brothers, we've been taking it hard A Lately this is how it is, conversations N.C. D With God is like [Pre-Chorus] Bm A That was my heart you broke G D That was my friend you stole Dm That was the man D A G That made me who I am...... D Bm A Now you see this mask I wear G D Out in the sun's despair Bm Goodbye plans A G And I guess I'll never understand...... Chorus D Bm Still my hero..... D G Still my hero.....
