Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

He can't remember the times that he thought

Does my daddy love me, probably not

That didn't stop him from wishing that he did

Didn't keep him from wanting or worshipping him

He guesses he saw him about once a year

He could still feel the way he felt standing in tears

Stretching his arms out as far as they'd go

Whispering, dad I want you to know

Chorus

I love you this much and I'm waiting on you

To make up your mind, do you love me too?

How ever long it takes I'm never giving up

No matter what

I love you this much

He grew to hate him for what he had done

Cause what kind of father could do that to his son

He said, damn you daddy the day that he died

The man didn't blink but the little boy cried

Chorus

I love you this much and I'm waiting on you

To make up your mind, do you love me too?

How ever long it takes I'm never giving up

Bridge

Half way through the service while the choir sang a hymn

He looked up above the preacher and he sat and stared at him

He said, forgive me father when he realized

That he hadn't been unloved or alone all his life

His arms were stretched out as far as they'd go

Nailed to the cross for the whole world to know

Chorus

I love you this much and I'm waiting on you

To make up your mind, do you love me too?

How ever long it takes I'm never giving up
