Biography:
Sawyer Brown is a country music band formed in 1981 at a Pizza Hut restaurant in Apopka, Florida. Lead singer Mark Miller asked keyboardist Gregg "Hobie" Hubbard to play piano for a couple of songs he had written. The two left for Nashville, Tennessee, where they met up with Florida drummer Joe Smyth, Michigan bass player Jim Scholten and original lead guitarist Bobby Randall. They first called the band "Savanah", but renamed themselves "Sawyer Brown" after Sawyer Brown Road, the street where they rehearsed.

(verse 1)
G D/F#
A mother riding on a city bus
Em7 D
Kids are yelling kicking up a fuss
Cadd9
Everybody’s staring
C/B D
Not knowing what she's going through
G D/F#
Somebody said don't you even care
Em7 D
And do you let them do that everywhere
Cadd9 C/B D
She slowly turned around, looked up and stared.
(pre-cho)
Em7 Cadd9
She said, "Please forgive them They've been up all night"
Em7 Cadd9
Their father struggled But he finally lost his fight
Em7 Cadd9
He went to heaven In the middle of the night
Cadd9 C/B Am G D
So please for--give my children
They don’t understand."
(chorus)
G D/F#
Everybody's busy with their own situation
Em7 D
Everybody's lost in their own little world
Cadd9 C/B D
Bottled up, hurried up, trying to make a dream come true
They don't understand
G D/F#
Everybody's livin' like there ain't no tomorrow
Em7 D
Maybe we should stop and take a little time
Cadd9 C/B D
Cause you never really know what your neighbor’s going through
They don't understand.
(verse 2)
A man drivin on the interstate,
slowin down traffic makin everybody late,
Everybody's starin' not knowin what he's goin through,
Sombody honked from the passin' lane,
yelled out the window ain't got all day,
The old man looked around and he caught his eye,
(pre- cho)
HE said please forgive me,
you know it's been a real long life,
My wife has passed away and my kids don't have the time,
And I've been there ? long and it's gettin' hard to drive,
So please forgive me children,
They don't understand.
