Mama called about the paper turns out they wrote about me
Am
Now my broken heart´s the only thing that's broke about me
CG/B
So many people should have seen what we got going on
Am
I only wanna put my heart and my life in songs
CG/B
Writing about the pain I felt with my daddy gone
Am
About the emptiness I felt when I sat alone
CG/B
About the happiness i feel when I sing it loud
Am
He should have heard the noise we made with the happy crowd
(Chorus)
FG
Did my grandaddy know he taught me what a poem was
EmAm
How you can use a sentence or just a simple pause
FG
What will I say when my kids ask me who my daddy was
EmAm
I thought about it for a while and I'm at a loss
FG
Knowing that I´m gonna live my whole life without him
EmAm
I found out a lot of things I never knew about him
FG
All I know is that I´ll never really be alone
EmAm
Cause we gotta lot of love and a happy home

Magazines are writing stuff but I don´t ever read them
Am
Some of the folks I used to know would see and start believing
CG/B
That I would pass them by on streets and never reach to greet them
Am
I still remember folks even though I rarely meet them
CG/B
Don´t you know I miss the times when we used to hang
Am
Before twenty deep depended on a single man
CG/B
Before a single heart was broken by a single blow
Am
Before all our careers depended on a single show
[Chorus]
FG
I grew up with a lot of love in a happy home
EmAm
Now I got a lot of cash and I'm on a road
FG
I realize privacy´s becoming difficult
EmAm
It´s all right now but what about when I´m old
FG
I know my good friends now they´ll last
EmAm
the same ones that stood by me when my daddy past
FG
All I know is that we´ll never really be alone
EmAm
Cause we got a lot of love and a happy home

Am
You hear them on the radio but will you really read them

CG/B
Why do we have our idols and why do we wanna be them
Am
After we see them on TV we really wanna meet them
CG/B
Don´t you think they miss the time when they used to hang
Am
Before a fan base depended on a single man
CG/B
Before a single heart was broken by a single show
Am
Who´s gonna stand who´s gonna fall I really wanna know
[Chorus]
FG
I grew up with a lot of love in a happy home
EmAm
My daddy use to play me vinyl but now daddy´s gone
FG
I used to practice with my mommy on the piano
EmAm
I still get nervous every time I know she´s at a show
FG
Now my family comes first before everyone
EmAm
I had the perfect dad I wanna be the perfect son
FG
Though I really feel sometimes I am on my own
EmAm
I know I got a lot of love and a happy home
