Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]I guess you could
call [G]it [Am]textbook
[Dm]I was lookin' for the father
[Am]I wanted back[E]
[Am]And I thought I found it
[G]in Brentwood
It seemed [Dm]only appropriate you'd easily
have my [E]back[Am]

[Verse 2]
And then there was [C]the issue of her
I didn't even [Gsus4]like myself,
or love the [G]life [Dm]I had
And there you were with [Am]shining stars
[C]Standing blue with open arms
You touched the [G]detriment most of the
friends I [C]knew [Gsus4]already h[Dm]ad[C][Dm]

[Verse 3]
[F]You've got a Thunderbird,
[C]my daddy had one too
[G]Let's rewrite his[Gsus4] tory,[G]
[Am]I'll do this dance with you
[F]You know I'm not that gir[C]l,
you know I'll [G]never be
Maybe just the way we're
[Am]different could set me free
[F]And there we were, screamin',
"Black Lives [C]Matter" in the crowd
By the Old Man [G]River,
and I saw you saw who [Am]I am
[F]God, I wish I was with my fat[C]her
He could see us in all our [G]splendor
All the things I couldn't
want [Am]for him
I screamed for [F]them, [C]oh
[G]I screamed for [Am]them, ah

[Verse 4]
[Am][A]
Could we [G]do this dance again?
Do you [Dm]think if I go blonde,
we could [F]get our old love [A]back?[Am]
I guess this [G]is really the end
[Dm]I never felt jealous before this year,
but I'm jealous [E]now[Am]

[Verse 5]
People say we're [C]too much alike
But maybe, finally, [G]that'll make it right
At the end of all these sleepless [Dm]nights
Other men I [Am]met felt right
Would smile [G]at you and [C]stick a knife
In your [G]back, finally,
I met you so I'm not wondering [Dm]why

[Verse 6]
[F]You've got a Thunderbird,
[C]my daddy had one too
[G]Let's rewrite history,
[Am]I'll do this dance with you
[F]You know I'm not that gir[C]l,
you [Am]know I'll [C]never [G]be
Maybe [Gsus4]just the way [G]we're
[Am]different could set me free
[F]There we were, screamin',
"Black Lives [C]Matter" in the crowd
By the Old Man [G]River,
and I saw you saw who [Am]I am
[F]God, I wish I was with my [C]father
He could see us in all our [G]splendor
All the things I couldn't
want for [Am]him
I screamed [F]for them, [C]oh
I screamed [G]for them, [Am]ah- ah

[Verse 7]
[Am]Old Man River [F]keeps [C]rollin'
With or [G]without him
[Am]Old Man River keeps roll[F]in'
[C]Without him, oh, my old [G]man
[Am]Old Man River keeps [F]rollin', o[C]h
[G]
