[Verse 1]
[G]You hung up the [Em]phone
And I [D]asked you what was [C]wrong
Your dad has [Em]come to town
[D]He'd like to [C]meet
I said [G]"You don't have to [C]see him"
But [Em]for whatever reason
you can't [C]tell him no

[Verse 2]
So we [G]meet him at a [Em]bar
You were [D]holding my hand [C]hard
He ordered [G]rum and coke
I can't [D]drink either anymore
[C]He hadn't see[G]n you since the
[D]fifth grade
Now you're [Em]nineteen
and you're [C]five-eight
He He said [Em]"Honey, you sure look great
Do [D]you get the checks
I send on [C]your birthday?"
I would [Am]kill him If [D]you let

[Verse 3]

I love your [G]eyes

[Verse 4]
[Em]And he has them
But you [G]have his
[D]'Cause he was [C]first
I [G]imagine my [C]thumbs on the [Em]irises

He [C]offers us a [G]ride
I reply [C]"No, [Em]that's al[D]right"
[C]And when we lea[Em]ve
You feel him watch[C]ing
So we walk [G]a mile [D]in the wrong [C]direction
I would [Am]kill

[Verse 6]
him
If [D]you let me
I would [Am]kill him
Quick and [D]easy
Your nails are [Am]dig ging
[G]Into my [D]knee
I don't [Em]know
[D]How you keep [C]smiling
I don't [Em]know
How [D]you keep smil[C]ing
I [Em]don't know
How [D]you keep smil[C]ing

[Verse 7]
I wanna [D]take your face
between my [C]hands and say
[G]"Y ou two are [Em]connected by
a [D]pure coincid[C]ence
Bound [G]to him by [Em]blood,

[C]You've been in [G]his fis[Em]t
ever [D]since you were a kid
[C]But you don[G]'t owe him[Em] shit
[D]even if he said [C]you did
[G]You don't owe him [Em]shit
even [D]if he said you did"
