G D/F# Em Dm
Cmaj7 Bm7 Am7 D9sus4

G                 D/F#
When was the last time
          Em        Dm
That they heard you say
Cmaj7 Bm7            Am7  Am7/D
"Mother or father, I love you"?
G                     D/F#
And when was the last time
          Em        Dm
That they heard you say
Cmaj7 Bm7           Am7  Am7/D
"Daughter or son, I love you"?

Em               F6
Ones you say you cherish every day
C/G              Adim7
Can instantly be taken away
E/B             C#m7
Then you'd say "I know this can't be true"
         Am7
When you never took the time
          Am7/D
To simply tell them "I love you"

G                 D/F#
When was the last time
          Em        Dm
That they heard you say
Cmaj7 Bm7             Am7  Am7/D
"Sister or brother, I love you"?
G                     D/F#
And when was the last time
          Em        Dm
That they heard you say
Cmaj7 Bm7                  Am7  Am7/D
"Darling or best friend, I love you"?

    Em                 F6
The one for whom you'd give your very life
C/G                   Adim7
Could be taken in the twinkling of an eye
E/B                      C#m7
Through your tears you'd ask "Why did you go?"
        Am7
Knowing you didn't always show
         Am7/D
Just how much you loved them so

Am7   Bm7   Bm7/E

I know a family
             Am7
Who hasn't a cent to their name
            F#7sus4           F#7
And yet the joy and love they have between them
Bm7
They always claim
         E7sus4
And when one's called from life
    A7
The survived mourn the lost
                      Dmaj9 Bm7
