Chords

The song is a collaboration with Lady A [Intro] G C Am [Verse 1]
G
Waking up at 5 a.m. after being up all night again

        C                             G
Kissing on their foreheads while they sleep
Sneaking past floorboards that creak
                             C
I slowly close the door that squeaks

                                     G
To leave the one place I don't wanna leave

            Em   D  G     C
I hope they know oh oh oh oh

            G
Who I do it for
[Verse 2]
G
First words I didn't hear
Regrets I can't make disappear
    C                                 G
Goodnight phone calls, whisper in the dark
There's no way I can explain The reasons that I just can't stay
  C                                     G
I never thought this life would be this hard
[Chorus]
C    G
So tonight, I pray

                     C
Someday they'll understand

              G
That all this time away

    C                            D
I'm doing all I can to give them everything

                           C
Everything I never had and more
I hope they know oh oh
            G
Who I do it for
G [Verse 3]
G
The backyard grass beneath their feet
A safe place they can fall asleep
        C                           G
They'll never have to worry what it costs
Yeah, and it's my job to provide for them To build a better life for them
      C                                   G
But I know it's hard to see that when I'm gone
[Chorus]
    C    G
Oh! So tonight, I pray

                     C
Someday they'll understand

              G
That all this time away

    C                            D
I'm doing all I can to give them everything

                           C
Everything I never had and more
I hope they know oh oh
                    Em  D  G     C
They're who I do it for oh oh oh oh

                    Em  D  G     C
They're who I do it for oh oh oh oh
[Chorus]
     G
So tonight, I pray

                     C
One day they'll understand

              G
That all this time away

    C                            D
I'm doing all I can to give them everything

                           C
Everything I never had and more
I hope they know oh oh
                    G
They're who I do it for
[Outro]
G
Who I do it, who I do it, who I do it for

            C
Who I do it for

                                           G
Who I do it, who I do it, who I do it for
