We said a million times we'd change,
BbBb6Bbmaj7Bb6
Can't bring myself to say those words again.

BbBb6Bbmaj7Bb6
And whispered sorrys always come too late.
EbF
Then the damage has been done,
EbBbBb6Bbmaj7Bb6
What er we going to tell our son.
Chorus:
EbBb
I want to spare his broken heart.
EbBb
Brek it gently that we'll live apart
FEb
Don't know the proper way to say
BbBb6Bbmaj7Bb6
He won't be seeing daddy ev'ry day.
Verse3:
Those weekly outings never work you know,
Buying gifts and candy picture shows.
They can't replace the man around,
Your voice, your touch, your manly sound.
Verse4:
I quess the trouble is I love you still,
And if it comes to that I always will.
No, please don't cry, it's just too late
Now hurry on, she's waiting at the gate
