Bm/D Gmaj7 My father sits at night with no lights on,
Bm/D Gmaj7 Dm9 His cigarette glows in the dark, the living room is still,
Cadd9 Am/G Ab G I walk by, no re - mark---------! | / / / / |
Bm/D Gmaj7 I tiptoe past the master bedroom, where...
Bm/D Gmaj7 Dm9 ...my mother reads her maga - zines, I hear her call,"Sweet dreams!"
Cadd9 Am/G Ab G But I forget how to dream--------! | / / / / |
Fmaj7 Em7 But you say it's time we moved in together,
Fmaj7 Cmaj7 And raised a family of our own, you and me,
Fmaj7 Em7 Well, that's the way I've always heard it should be,
A D5You want to marry me, ...we'll marry-----!
Bm/D Gmaj7 My friends from college, they're all... married now,
Bm/D Gmaj7 Dm9 They have their houses, and their... lawns, they have their silent noons,
Cadd9 Am/G Ab G Tearful nights, angry dawns------! | / / / / |
Bm/D Gmaj7 Their children hate them for----- the things they're not,
Bm/D Gmaj7 Dm9 They hate themselves for what they are, and yet they drink, they laugh,
Cadd9 Am/G Ab G Close the wound, hide the scar------! | / / / / |
Fmaj7 Em7 But you say it's time we moved in together,
Fmaj7 Cmaj7 And raised a family of our own, you and me,
Fmaj7 Em7 Well, that's the way I've always heard it should be,
A D5You want to marry me, ...we'll marry-----!
Bm/D Gmaj7 You say that we can keep our love alive,
Bm/D Gmaj7 Dm9 Babe, all I know is what I see, the couples cling and claw,
Cadd9 Am/G Ab G And drown in love's de - bris------! | / / / / |
Bm/D Gmaj7 You say, we'll soar like two birds through the clouds,
Bm/D Gmaj7 But soon you'll cage me... on your shelf,
Dm9 Cadd9 Am/G Ab G I'll never learn to be just me first, by my - self--------! | / / / / |
Fmaj7 Em7 Well, okay, it's time we moved in together,
Fmaj7 Cmaj7 And raised a family of our own, you and me,
Fmaj7 Em7 Well, that's the way I've always heard it should be,
A D5You want to marry me, ...we'll marry-----------------!
