Intro- 
Am F C G
Am F C G
Am      F
I’m sorry mom and dad 
C         G 
I know I’ve messed up bad, I should’ve
Am               F                 C   G
Should’ve done, should’ve done better
Am      F
I’m sorry mom and dad
C      G      Am
For all the time I had to get my life
F             C             G
To get my life together, but I didn’t 
Am                   F
Nineteen niney-three you gave birth to me
C                 
Sweet little baby girl 
G                     Am
Had the world at my feet
F            C    G
Before I could even stand
Am
Cradled me in your right 
F
And your left hand 
C                  G
A precious bundle of un-made plans
Am                  F
Hopes and dreams of bigger things
C            G
A bright future so it seemed, oh
Am                       F
But that light grew a little less bright
C              G
As I grew up we began to fight
Am                 F
When I was thirteen I was so damn mean
C                       G
Running away had nothing more to say 
Am
Than I hate you
F        C   G
But that’s not true now 
Am               F
I just don’t, I just don’t
C        G
I just don’t know how to say
Am      F
I’m sorry mom and dad 
C         G
I know I’ve messed up bad, I should’ve
Am               F                 C   G
Should’ve done, should’ve done better
Am      F
I’m sorry mom and dad
C      G       Am
For all the time I had, to get my life
F             C             G
To get my life together, but I didn’t 
Am               F                C      G
You never talk about me to your friends 
Am            F            C        G
Because you must be so embarrassed
C                   G
I dropped out of college without any plans
F                        C
I moved back home I couldn’t even pay rent
Dm                             
I was living on your couch 
C
Trying to figure it out
Bm                 G*
Cutting myself up, tearing myself down
Am      F
I’m sorry mom and dad 
C         G 
I know I’ve messed up bad, I should’ve
Am               F                 C   G
Should’ve done, should’ve done better
Am      F
I’m sorry mom and dad
C       G     Am
For all the time I had to get my life
F             C             G
To get my life together, but I didn’t 
Dm
I’m sorry that I couldn’t 
C                        F
Buy you that house upon that hill
G            Dm
Or take care of all your medical bills 
C
I know I didn’t make you proud
F
I should’ve been someone by now 
G
But I never figured out how
Dm
I’m sorry that I couldn’t 
C                        F
Buy you that house upon that hill
G            Dm
Or take care of all your medical bills 
C
I know I didn’t make you proud
F
I should’ve been someone by now 
G
But I never figured out how
Am      F
I’m sorry mom and dad 
C         G
I know I’ve messed up bad, I should’ve
Am               F                 C   G
Should’ve done, should’ve done better
Am      F
I’m sorry mom and dad
C       G     Am
For all the time I had to get my life
F             C      G
To get my life together 
Am*     F*
I’m sorry mom and dad 
C*        G* 
I know I’ve messed up bad, I should’ve
Am*              F*                C*  G
Should’ve done, should’ve done better
Am*     F*
I’m sorry mom and dad
C*      G     Am*
For all the time I had to get my life
F*            C*   G*   Am*   F*
To get my life together, but I didn’t
G*       C*
Sincerely, Your Daughter
This ending below using barre's sounds good, 
but it's definitely harder to play! For me anyway!
