C-Em-F-G x5
C Em
Well did you do something for yourself, mom,
F G
and get the hell out of the house.
C Em
Would you do something for your son, mom,
F G
and stop taking all these pills.
Am
Cause its cold in December
G
and there's reason to stay in
F G
and I wanna see you win.
Am
You're on the deck of that ship.
G
Yeah, you're sailing away.
F G
The sun looks right on your face.
C Em
Without a reason to believe in something,
F G
could do most anything.
C Em
Well that you told me someplace,
F G
but I can't remember when.
Am
It was a long time ago,
G
maybe the first day of school,
F G
going to visit dad.
Am
I was scared, but you told me
G
I could bolt if I wanted.
F G
I was only nine, but I went.
Dm G C /B Bb
So go on and make your families proud.
F
Just like you always do.

Just like they want you to.

C Em
My old girlfriend's studying medicine.
F G
Would you save my life if I got sick?
C
Haven't seen you in a while.
Em
How have you been.
F G
Of course, if you have the right insurance, friend.
C Em
And I think if we got back together again,
F
you know, give it a run.
G
You know, you were my first love.
C Em
You're very drunk, and we were very young.
F G
I'm goin to see this guy and it might be love.
Am G F
Yeah, I think he might be the one.
Am G F
If you get married, can I come?
G
I gotta see this!
Dm G C /B Bb
Well go on and dig your holes in this ground.
Dm G C /B Bb
Yeah, go on and lay your tired bodies down.
F
Just like you're going to.
Ab
Just like the expect you to.
(break)
Dm G Am
And I've been thinking of moving away.
F
And now that we've had this talk,
G C
I definitely may.
Dm G C
Well, now go on and break your word
/B Bb
and it'll break me down.
Dm G
And I'll go on and I'll break
C /B Bb
every last thing in this house.
F
Just like I'm going to.
Ab
Just like you expect me to.
Dm G C /B Bb
Now go on and make your family proud.
Dm G C /B Bb
Now go on and stake your claim in this ground.
Dm G C /B Bb
Now go on and take that last drink down.
F
And then I'll get you through
Ab Bb C
What did they put you through!
