Your mama is staying, But I'm goin' away 
Dm7           A                           Bm
No, we're not mad, kids, And it's hard to say why

Your mother and I, kids, Don't see eye to eye

But sometimes things happen, That we can't foresee

So try to be calm, kids, And don't look so sad
                F#                          B                 
Just cause I am leavin', I'll still be your dad
G7                   C                          Dm
But just remember I love you, And though I'm not here
                 G             G7        C
Just call if you need me, I'll always be near

(same as other chorus)
Say your prayers before you go to bed

Make sure you get yourself to school on time

I know you'll do the things your mother asks

She's gonna need you most to stay in line

Keep in mind your mother's gonna need 

Your help a whole lot more than she ever did before

No more fightin' over little things 'cause
                                     C#
I won't be here to stop them anymore

Well, I have to go now, So kiss me goodbye
D#m7             G#                        C#  
My eyes are just red, kids, I'm too big to cry
