Song For My Father

A  C#m  D  C#m

A                     C#m
  When the warm wind blows
             D             C#m
Through the corridors and tiled walls
A              C#m
  There you are
          D               C#m
The mad guardian of your empty room
A                     C#m
  Your memories were tortured
         D              C#m
By the scent of ocean through the halls -
A               C#m
  And where was I
     D                  C#m
The one that you loved best?

A  D  C#m  A

A
  Now show me how
                        C#m
To hold the knife that cuts the page
A
  To crucify the weakness
                          C#m E  A
And the guilt I use for faking strength
A
  Now I remember
           D                C#m
I crawled naked across the broken stage
A
  And there was I
The child that brought us shame

A  C#m  A  D  A  E  A  E

A
  So walk across
     D         A
The blood red ocean
       C#m
Stand above
             D                 A
The broken glass and concrete towers
And here I sleep
      D             A
Some guardian of my empty room
Now I've become the child
                   C#m
That neither of us knew

A D A E
A      C#m         A     D
Jetzt kannst du schlafen
A             D              A E A
Jetzt kannst du immer ruhig träumen.)
                    C#m
Thank god you never knew
      A               C#m
The things that I've done
A
  Thank god you never saw
      D          C#m   A
The person I've become
