The Man I Used To Be by Jellyfish
The Man I Used To Be
Capo:no capo
Em D
I hope you remember me
Am
I was your daddy once
Em D Am
Wearing the sailor cap and dirty nails
Em D Am
To you I'm just a picture on your mother's mantlepiece
Em D Am
Who chose to fight the good fight in time to fail
G
Into battle
D
And in your shadow
C D#dim7 Em Em/D#
Your daddy loves you still
Em/D Em/C# C G D/F#
Yes I do
I never thought it'd be so hard to see you grow so fast
And turn into the man I used to be
But I hope you have more sense than I in matters such as these
Medals don't mean shit when a family is so lost at sea
Into battle
And in your shadow
Your daddy loves you still
Yes he does
Yes he does
E D
I save every moment I've reached out and almost touched you
E D
But they all fade away must be a bad memory
