Verse 1:

Em                              C
   Mother tell me why'd you have to fall

Em                             C
   Mother tell me why'd you have to break at all

Em                          C

Chorus:

G                                 C
   Because there's no more room for hiding

G                         C
   I've got no breath for denying

G                            C
   I've got so much locked up inside me

               G *                          Am *
   Just like a lion, I've got to uncage it all

                      Em    C    Em    C
   And watch you run away

*Chord walk-down

   Father tell me why'd you have to go

Em                                 C
   Father tell me why didn't you let me know

Em                            C
   Father show me how to be a man

Em                                 C
   Instead of holding back tears as hard as I can
