     A
Dear Dad, I know you’re proud of me even though you’ve never said it well
            D       E      A
I know you are, and I know that talking can be hard
And I think I’ve proven myself to be naturally responsible
      D       E       A                       D
And I want my mustang back.  I want to cruise down Kirkwood,
E                   A
Make the other cruisers envy me
          E                            A
I want to rip down the highways, leave a cloud of jealousy
            D                        E
The car was nothing but a junk heap, when you bought it for me when I was
A
Fourteen
                          D                        E         A
We fixed it up together, and honestly I think you can fix anything
E                           A
And I know you’re proud of me because I’m living my dreams
   D             E            A                E           A
So please, please, please, don’t worry about me.  Please don’t worry about me
     A
Dear mom, I know that you’re afraid
                      D       E       A
You’ve got every right to be, growing up with nothing to born to have a dream
And I know there’s a crook inside of you, just dying to get out
              D                E              A                     D
And you would hide me from the cops, if they came knocking at your house
             E                            A
You would drive my getaway car, that’s just the way you are
You’ve gotta mothers heart
                       D
You’ve gotta mothers heart
                       E
You’ve gotta mothers heart
                       A
You’ve gotta mothers heart
A                             D
And I’m sorry that I’ve always forgot your birthday
          E
And you never forgot mine
         A                                      D
And I’m sorry that I haven’t given you any grandkids
          E                        A
And I’m sorry that I don’t have a wife
          E                   A             D             E           A
And I’m sorry that the way I live my life, isn’t the way you think is right
                       D               E            A
But you’ve raised me well, and I think I came out alright
E                                  A
Even though your ashamed of me for being such a thief
       E                             A
Well I know you still love me, and I admire your honesty
   D               E       A                 D
So please, please, please, don’t worry about me
             E           A
Please don’t worry about me
