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
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"

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

Now I realize that he had struggles of his own
How could I be so selfish, oh, how could I block his phone?
I remember when my father lost his job
He held our home together for the family, he was strong

And as the years went by
He was always by my side
To wipe all of the tears I cried

Chorus

I hope that I am just like you
I hope that I am just like you
I hope that I am just like you

(I hope that I am just like you)
I hope that I am just like you
(I hope that I am just like you)
I hope that I am just like
(I hope that I am just like you)
I hope that I am just like
(I hope that I am just like)

Chorus

I hope that I am just like you
I hope that I am just like you
I hope that I am just like you
