None of them
Intro G Adim7 Em Am/B Am C C/D Cm Verse G C G G7 G7sus4 Don't take the following words as reverence for tradition Am C G Am7 C I've learned to pick my battles by losing most I've fought G C G G7 G7sus4 The more mores subverted, the more I sense I'm missing Am C G Am7 C G Am7 C And I'll always do it my way, even if it's just the same way I was taught G Am7 C G G7 G7sus4 I'll bring home the bread, and you'll stay home and bake it Am/B Am C G Am7 C Weeding out the garden where the milestones gather moss G Am7 C G G7 G7sus4 Crack a smile at my vows and whisper, “wow, can you believe we really made it?” Am/B Am C G G7 G7sus4 As I give up on dodging rice and fold my cape, I say “obviously not.” Chorus Am/B Am C G G7 G7sus4 But I want to be just like my parents before I was born Am/B Am C G Am7 C G C Oh, can we be just like my parents? Mmh Verse G Am7 C G G7 G7sus4 I know you don't want kids, but think about a daughter Am/B Am C G Am7 C We could name her Gwendolyn, like mom would’ve called me G Am7 C G G7 G7sus4 I'm not sure yet myself, but I learned from a good father Am/B Am C G Am7 C G Am7 C Yeah, I mean, sure, they messed me up, but I think that's just the gig G Am7 C G G7 G7sus4 And maybe it's just some hormones that kick in in your late twenties Am/B Am C G Am7 C But I have laid a lot of women, now I'd like to just lay down G Am7 C G G7 G7sus4 And marriage always scared me, but I'd like to have a last love Am/B Am C G G7 G7sus4 And love can last a pretty good long while. I've seen it around Chorus Am/B Am C G G7 G7sus4 Oh, can we be just like my parents when I was young? Am/B Am C G Am7 C G Am7 C Why can't we be just like my parents? Mmh Bridge G Adim7 Em Am/B Am C C/D Cm Am/B Am C So tongue out of my cheek now, I'm done pulling faces G Adim7 Iconoclasm wanes, my cynicism tires. Em Am/B Am But what do I know about forever, when so far I’ve been so fleeting? C D7 Babe, my frontal lobe’s done growing, this might just be how I’m wired. Am/B Am C But now we're kissing before brushing, smile with our whole faces G Adim7 If you want a hyphen last name I guess I don't mind the cadence Em Am/B Am I've seen home videos, I was there back in the 80's C D7 And if I'm just them, and they back then could do it, why can't I? Chorus Am C G G7 G7sus4 Just like my parents in due time Am C G Am7 C G Am7 C Imagine me, just like my parents. Yeah, right! Outro G Am7 C G G7 G7sus4 ‘Cause I’ve made more mistakes than simple empty moments. Uohhh Am/B Am C G C Each one as out of character as you know I tend to be G G7 C Cm There’ll be scalpers at the cemetery gates, with all my would-be widows weeping. Ohh Am/B Am C G Am7 C G Am7 C I’d have forgotten all their names, so why should you remember me? G C G G7 G7sus4 If we grow old together, will you talk to my headstone? Am C G C C/D That is assuming that I die first (which is fair), and assuming I don't leave G C G G7 G7sus4 Close enough to forever, I guess, to prove what I hope Adim7 D7 G Adim7 Em Am/B Am C C/D Cm G I mean, otherwise how am I to believe?
