Verse 1:
Dm7                    Am7
When I was younger, I would argue with my dad
C                            G
Tell him that I hated him  when I was talking back
Dm7                  F                   G
Blocked his number, can't believe that I did that
G
Oh, I didn't have a reason, wish that I could take it back
Dm7            Am7          C                   G
But as the years went by, he was always by my side
   Dm7            F           G
To wipe all of the tears I cried
 
Chorus:
Dm7          Am7    C          G
Now that I'm older, realize my father
    Dm7       F             G
Was doing the best he could do
Dm7        Am7                  C        G
Told him, "One day, I'll have a son or a daughter
    Dm7        F      G
And when I'm a father too
G
I hope that I am just like you"
 
Post-Chorus:
Dm7               Am7
I hope that I am just like you
C                G               Dm7
I hope that I am just like you
F                       G
I hope that I am just like you
 
Verse 2:
Dm7                     Am7
Now I realize that he had struggles of his own
C                                     G
How could I be so selfish, oh, how could I block his phone?
Dm7              F                   G
I remember when my father lost his job
G
He held our home together for the family, he was strong
Dm7         Am7           C                   G
But as the years went by, he was always by my side
   Dm7             F           G
To wipe all of the tears I cried

 
Chorus:
Dm7          Am7    C          G
Now that I'm older, realize my father
    Dm7        F             G
Was doing the best he could do
Dm7        Am7                  C        G
Told him, "One day, I'll have a son or a daughter
    Dm7        F      G
And when I'm a father too
G
I hope that I am just like you"
 
Post-Chorus:
Dm7               Am7
I hope that I am just like you
C                G               Dm7
I hope that I am just like you
F                       G
I hope that I am just like you
