[Intro]
G D7 G
[Verse 1]
G G7 C
The divorce had been granted and my wife was seeking
G D7
The custody of our only son
G G7 C
And as our boy told his story, we both started crying
G D7 G
Then I realized the harm we had done
[Verse 2]
G G7 C
He said, "Your Honor, I'm seven and home was a heaven
G D7
My dad was a king in my eyes
G G7 C
My mother, an angel who guided my footsteps
G D7 G
And home was my one paradise"
[Chorus]
D7 G
"But I love them both and I can't choose just one
D7
Dear judge, can't you make them see
G G7 C
That Mom without Daddy or Dad without Mommy
G D7 G
Would only mean heartbreak to me?"
[Interlude]
G D7 G
[Verse 3]
G G7 C
"Judge, I'm so broken-hearted, my parents have parted
G D7
And gone are the dreams I once had
G G7 C
To me, there's no other can be like my mother
G D7 G
And I still want to be with my dad"
