[Verse 1]
Dm CI guess you could call it textbook
Gm DmI was lookin' for the father I wanted back
Dm C And I thought I found it in Brentwood
Gm A7It seemed only appropriate you'd easily have my back
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm F And then there was the issue of her
C GmI didn't even like myself, or love the life I had
Dm FAnd there you were with shining stars, standin' blue with open arms
C DmYou touched the detriment most of the friends I knew already had
[Chorus]
Bb F You've got a Thunderbird, my daddy had one, too
C Dm Let's rewrite history, I'll Do this dance with you
Bb F You know I'm not that girl, you know I'll never be
C Dm Maybe just the way we're different could set me free
Bb F And there we were, screamin' "Black Lives Matter" in the crowd by the Old Man
C DmRiver, and I saw you saw who I am
Bb F God, I wish I was with my father, he could see us in all our
C Dmsplendor, all the things I couldn't want for him
Bbmaj Am7I screamed for them, oh-oh-oh
C DmI screamed for them, ah-ah
[Verse 2]
Dm C Could we Do this dance again?
Gm DmDo you think if I Go blonde, we could get our old love back?
Dm C I guess this is really the end
Gm A7I never felt jealous before this year, but I'm jealous now
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm F People say we're too much alike
C GmBut maybe, finally, that'll make it right, in the end of all these sleepless nights
Dm FOther men I met felt right, would smile at you and stick a knife
C GmIn your back, finally, I met you so I'm not wonderin' why
[Chorus]
Bb F You've got a Thunderbird, my daddy had one, too
C Dm Let's rewrite history, I'll Do this dance with you
Bb F You know I'm not that girl, you know I'll never be
C Dm Maybe just the way we're different could set me free
Bb F And there we were, screamin' "Black Lives Matter" in the crowd by the Old Man
C DmRiver, and I saw you saw who I am
Bb F God, I wish I was with my father, he could see us in all our
C Dmsplendor, all the things I couldn't want for him
Bbmaj Am7I screamed for them, oh-oh-oh
C DmI screamed for them, ah-ah
[Outro]
Dm BbOld Man River keeps rollin'
F C With or without him
Dm Bb Old Man River keeps rollin'
F CWithout him, oh, my old man
Dm Bb F COld Man River keeps rollin', oh
