Intro: DDsus2-DGAsusA (x2)
DA/C#BmA
He can't remember the times that he thought
GD/F#Em7A
Does my daddy love me, probably not
DA/C#BmA
That didn't stop him from wishing that he did
GD/F#Em7AsusA
Didn't keep him from wanting or worshipping him
DA/C#BmA
He guesses he saw him about once a year
GD/F#Em7A
He could still feel the way he felt standing in tears
DA/C#BmA
Stretching his arms out as far as they'd go
GD/F#Em7A
Whispering, dad I want you to know
Chorus:
GD/F#
I love you this much and I'm waiting on you
Em7A
To make up your mind, do you love me too?
GD/F#
How ever long it takes I'm never giving up
Em7D/F#G
No matter what
AD (repeat Intro progression once except on second Chorus)
I love you this much
DA/C#BmA
He grew to hate him for what he had done
GD/F#EmA
Cause what kind of father could do that to his son
DA/C#BmA
He said, damn you daddy the day that he died
GD/F#EmA
The man didn't blink but the little boy cried

Half way through the service while the choir sang a hymn
CA
He looked up above the preacher and he sat and stared at him
DA/C#BmA
He said, forgive me father when he realized
GD/F#Em7A
That he hadn't been unloved or alone all his life
DA/C#BmA
His arms were stretched out as far as they'd go
GD/F#Em7A
Nailed to the cross for the whole world to know
ChorusGD/F#
I love you this much and I'm waiting on you
