Lyrics:
Verse 1
Hey Dad look at me
Think back and talk to me
Did i grow up according to plan
And do ya think i'm wasting my time
Doing things i wanna do
But it hurts when you disapprove all along
Pre Chorus
Oh and i try hard to make it
And i just wanna make you proud
I'm never gonna be good enough for you
Can't pretend that i'm alright
And you can't change me
Chorus
Cuz we lost it all
Nothing lasts forever
I'm sorry i can't be perfect
Now it's just too late
And we can't go back
I'm sorry I can't be Perfect....
Verse 2
I try not to think
About the pain i feel inside
Did you know you used to be my hero
All the days you spent with me
Now seem so far away
And it feels like you don't care anymore
Pre Chorus
And now i try hard to make it
I just wanna make you proud
I never gonna be good enough for you
I can't stand another fight
And nothing's alright
chorus
Cuz we lost it all and nothing last forever
I'm sorry i can't be Perfect
Now it's just too late and we can't go back
I'm sorry i can't be Perfect....
Bridge
Nothing's gonna change the things that you said
Nothing's gonna make this right again
Please don't turn your back I
Can't believe it's hard just to talk to you but you don't understand.
Chorus
Cuz we lost it all and nothing last forever
I'm sorry i can't be Perfect
Now it's just too late and we can't go back
I'm sorry i can't be Perfect....
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official SIMPLE PLAN tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
