I [C] guess you could call it a textbook I was looking [G] for the father I wanted [D] back
[Dm] Then I thought I found it [C] in the Brentwoods [Gm] It seemed only appropriate you'd easily have
[A] my back [Dm] And [F] then there was the issue of her
[C] I didn't even like myself or love the life [Gm] I had
And there [Dm] you were with shining stars [Em] [F] Standing there with open [C] arms
You dodged [C] the detriment Most of the friends I knew already
[G] You got a [F] Thunderbird My dad had [C] one too
Let's rewrite his story [Dm] I'll do a dance with [Bb] you
You know I'm not [C] that rude You know I'll never be
Maybe just the [Dm] way we're different Could set me [Bb] free
There we were, [F] screaming back last night In the crowd by the Old Man [C] River
And I saw you for who [Dm] I am [Bb] And I wish I was [F] with my father
He could see us [C] in all our splendor All the things I [Dm] couldn't want were here
[Bb] I screamed for them, [F] oh-oh-oh-oh-oh [C] I screamed for them, [Dm] oh-oh-oh [D]
-oh-oh
Could we do [C] this dance again?
[G] Do you think if I go blonde we could [E] get our [D] old love back?
[Dm]
I guess [C] this is really the end [Gm] I never felt jealous before this year but [A] I'm jealous now
People [Dm]
[F] say we're too much alike [C] But maybe finally that'll make it right
At the end, before [Gm] we sleep, I'll smile high Other [Dm] men I met felt right
[Em] But with [F] smile I'd chew a stick and knife In [C] your back, finally I know
[C] [Gm] [D]
[Bb] You got a [Am] Thunderbird My dad had one too
[C] Let's rewrite [Dm] history I'll do this [Bb] dance with you
You know I'm not that [Dm] girl You know I'll [C] never be
Maybe just the [A] way we're different Could set [Bb] me free
There we were, screaming [F] back last night In the crowd by the [C] Old Man River
And I saw, you saw [Dm] who I am [Bb] And I wish I was with [F] my father
He could see us in all our splendor All the things I couldn't want were [Dm] here
I [Bb] screamed for them, [F] oh-oh-oh-oh-oh I [C] screamed for them, [Dm] oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
[Bb] Old Man River keeps rolling [F] With or [C] without him
Old [Dm] Man River keeps [F] rolling Without him, I'm a [C] whole man
[Dm] Old Man River keeps [F] rolling
