The Abandoned

Em
Staring at the wall
I never thought this would be so hard
How could have I been so close and never known you?
I never knew, I never knew you at all!
You will always be my father but I hope you know
It's your fault and I'll never know what that means
You left a void that never could be replaced
I am dying inside but you will never see!

Em  Am  C          D
    I     always had hoped that you
Em  Am     C          D
     Did not want it this way
Em         Am        C      D
     But no matter how hard I try you always
Em        Am
Pushed me away.
B
   You said you loved me but

Em     D            C
How was I supposed to know? (How was I supposed to know)
     Em
When you left me here
D                C
You left me here alone?
Am           G               D
    Do I ever even cross your mind
Em
Just for second?
Am        G         B
    Do you know I'm alive?

Em
You know I would let you in but you threw everything away.
So tell me what did you get from all of these years of pain?
You have no clue what I've been through,
But I guess that you wanted it that way!

Em     D            C
How was I supposed to know? (How was I supposed to know)
     Em
When you left me here
D                C
You left me here alone?
Am           G               D
    Do I ever even cross your mind
Em
Just for second?
Am        G         B
    Do you know I'm alive?

Em                  C                         E4
If you would've been there, (if you would have been there)
Em                   C                          E4
If you would've stuck around, (if you would have stuck around)
Em
If you would've been there when I needed you
You would've been
Em
You would've been so proud!
