Dm                          C 
   I guess you could call it text book 
      Gm 
I was looking for the father 
         Dm 
I wanted back 
Dm                            C 
   And I thought I found it in Brentwood 
          Gm                                   A7 
It seemed only appropriate you'd easily had my back 
Dm                        F 
   And then there was the issue of her 
              C                               Gm 
I didn't even like myself, or love the life I had 
                        Dm 
And there you were with shinin' stars 
                    F 
Standin' clear with open arms 
                C                                             Gm 
You touched the detriment, most of the friends I knew already had
[Refrain]
Bb                          F 
   You've got a Thunderbird, my daddy had one too 
C                         Dm 
   Let's rewrite his story, I'll do this dance with you 
Bb 
   You know I'm not that girl 
F 
   You know I'll never be 
C                           Dm 
   Maybe just the way we're different could set me free 
Bb                                           F                                 C 
   And there we were, screamin' "Black Lives Matter" in a crowd by the Old Man River 
                        Dm 
And I saw you saw who I am 
Bb                           F                                  C 
   God, I wish I was with my father, he could see us in all our splendor 
                                   Dm 
All the things I couldn't want for him 
               Bb        F 
I screamed for them, oh, oh, oh 
                C      Dm 
And screamed for them, ah
[Strophe]
Dm                 C 
   Could we do this dance again? 
       Gm                                              Dm 
Do you think if I go blonde, we could get our old love back? 
Dm                       C 
   I guess this is really the end 
    Gm                                                 A7 
I never felt jealous before this year, but I'm jealous now 
Dm                  F 
   People say we're too much alive 
                   C 
But maybe if I lay dead that would make right in the end 
                       Gm 
Of all these sleepless nights 
            Dm 
Other men I met felt right 
                       F 
Would smile at you and stick a knife 
        C 
In your back 
                                        Gm 
Finally, I met you so I'm not wonderin' why
[Refrain]
Bb                          F 
   You've got a Thunderbird, my daddy had one too 
C                         Dm

   God, I wish I was with my father, he could see us in all our splendor

               Bb        F 
I screamed for them, oh, oh, oh 
                C      Dm 
And screamed for them, ah
[Outro]
                    Bb       F 
Old Man River keeps rollin' 
               C 
With or without him 
Dm               Bb 
   Old Man River keeps rollin' 
F                            C 
  Without him, oh my old man 
Dm                  Bb  F         C 
Old Man River keeps rollin', oh
