[Intro]
E  F# G#m
E
Yo
G#m                                            B      E       G#m
I know you don't understand my words but you will eventually
You will eventually
 E
Some day
One day
 
[Refrain]
                                E
I know you don't understand my words but you will eventually
                          G#m
And when you get older I hope you don't hold this shit against me
             E
I hope you understand I love you more than life itself
              G#m                             B
And this is nothin' but your daddy's thoughts when he was feelin' empty
 
[Verse 1]
                        E
And everything ain't always what it seems like on the outside
                   G#m
I fought so many tears so that you would never see the outcry
               E
I never wanted kids until I lived and went through hard times
                        G#m                                       B
And became a man that fell in love with someone that my heart finds
                   E
But you know how that shit go
                                     G#m
Young and reckless, different women part time
                                                   E
And I wasn't ready for that life yet, I was in my dark prime
                                                   G#m
Me and your moms ain't get along and she gave me a hard time
                              B                     E
I really think that we just crossed paths at the wrong time
            E                         G#m
I wasn't happy when she said she was pregnant
                                                        E
Probably the worst news of my life, that shit was so depressing
                                G#m
I told her she should get an abortion and I really meant it
I'm sorry that I said that shit, yo I was trippin'
 
[Refrain]
E                                                  G#m
I know you don't understand my words but you will eventually
And when you get older I hope you don't hold this shit against me
E          G#m
I'm sorry, yo
 
[Verse 2]
B                                     E
And I never wanted a broken home to raise you from a distance
                             G#m
Yeah I'll admit it, I was scared of that type of commitment
                 E
Even hopes of a miscarriage, anything bad that could happen
               G#m                          B
That'd get me out of that situation, I was livin
B                            E
I felt like shit about my thoughts, that wasn't me, I'm different
            G#m
Plus I was dealing with some demons that I couldn't live with
                              E                    G#m
I told her she should get an abortion and I really meant it
 
[Refrain]
                                E                   F#
I know you don't understand my words but you will eventually
                   G#m
And when you get older I hope you don't hold this shit against me
                                   E                   G#m    B
Hope you don't hate me, I was selfish, I hope you forgive me
E                G#m   B
Hope you forgive me
 
[Verse 3]
                          E
And I still remember your baby shower like it was yesterday
             G#m
And to your mom it was special, me, just another day
                              E
I wish that you could see the pictures, all the fake phony smilin'
                             G#m                   B
Had to pretend that I was happy, deep down I was cryin'
                    E
Ma asked if I was okay, I turned around and looked away
                      G#m
I was dryin' all my tears, look back to say yeah
                       E
I was lyin', goddamn, how the hell I get here?
                     G#m
This is it, this supposed to be my life
           B
This ain't how I pictured it
           E
I never felt so damn alone, but it was more than often
            G#m
One of the worst days of my life, and I ain't even lyin'
      E                            F#
We argued when we came home, I blame myself for all this
I think that I was holding a grudge 'cause she ain't get an abortion
I'm sorry
Damn
 
[Refrain]
                          E                            G#m
And I know you can't understand my words but you will eventually
                                                          B
And when you get older I hope you don't hold this shit against me
E                                                 F#        G#m
I can't believe I tried to hurt you, I hope you forgive me
E              Gm
Please, please
 
[Verse 4]
                       E
And everything ain't always what it seems like on the outside
G#m
I fight so many tears so that you would never see the outcry
                 E
I sacrifice my life so you could live it
 F#                               G#m                      B
Peace, want to give you things my father couldn't give to, me
                 E
I think I was raised wrong, and that's just what it is to me
                             G#m
And if you ask him then his ass gon' probably disagree
E                       F# G#m B
But whatever, whatever
E
And nothing's ever made me cry as much as you, I swear
                       G#m
Your smile gives me motivation and some new ideas
          E
My worst fear is always you not knowing who I am
                      G#m                            B
'Cause I been on the road dreamchasing for you out here
             E
I was the first thing that you opened your eyes to
                                 F#
And the last one that you said goodnight to
         G#m
I went home and cried to
And I bawled my eyes out, and then watched you
         E
Glad I got you, that's a blatant fact
    G#m                                            B
And every negative thing I said I swear I take it back
 
[Refrain]
                  E                                 F#
I know you don't understand my words but you will eventually
                          G#m
And when you get older I hope you don't hold this shit against me
             E                                      F#
I hope you understand I love you more than I love myself
                                        G#m
And this is nothin' but your daddy's thoughts when he was feelin' empty
 
[Outro]
E
I was feelin' empty
F#
I been feelin' empty
G#m
I put my emotions in this music when I'm feelin' empty
E
I hope you forgive me
Please, please
