DmI guess you could call it Ctext book
I was Gmlooking for the father
I wanted Dmback
DmAnd I thought I found it in CBrentwood
It seemed Gmonly appropriate you'd easily had my A7back
 
DmAnd then there was the Fissue of her
I didn't even Clike myself, or love the life I Gmhad
And there you were with Dmshinin' stars
Standin' clear with Fopen arms
You touched the Cdetriment,
most of the friends I knew already Gmhad
 
BbYou've got a Thunderbird, Fmy daddy had one too
CLet's rewrite his story, DmI'll do this dance with you
BbYou know I'm not that girl
FYou know I'll never be
CMaybe just the way we're Dmdifferent could set me free
BbAnd there we were, screamin' "Black Lives
FMatter" in a crowd by the Old Man CRiver
And I saw you saw who I Dmam
BbGod, I wish I was with my Ffather,
he could see us in all our Csplendor
All the things I couldn't want for Dmhim
I screamed for Bbthem, oh, Foh, oh
And screamed for Cthem, Dmah
 
DmCould we do this Cdance again?
Do you Gmthink if I go blonde, we could get our old love Dmback?
DmI guess this is really Cthe end
I neGmver felt jealous before this year, but I'm jealous A7now
 
DmPeople say we're Ftoo much alive
But maybe if I lay Cdead that would make right in the end
Of all these sleepless Gmnights
Other men I Dmmet felt right
Would smile at you and Fstick a knife
In your Fback
Finally, I met you so I'm not wonderin' Gmwhy
 
BbYou've got a Thunderbird, Fmy daddy had one too
CLet's rewrite his story, DmI'll do this dance with you
BbYou know I'm not that girl
FYou know I'll never be
CMaybe just the way we're Dmdifferent could set me free
BbAnd there we were, screamin' "Black Lives
FMatter" in a crowd by the Old Man CRiver
And I saw you saw who I Dmam
BbGod, I wish I was with my Ffather,
he could see us in all our Csplendor
All the things I couldn't want for Dmhim
I screamed for Bbthem, oh, Foh, oh
And screamed for Cthem, Dmah
 
Old Man River keeps Bbrollin' F
With or without Chim
DmOld Man River Bbkeeps rollin'
FWithout him, oh my old man C
DmOld Man River keeps BbrolFlin', oh C
