Father and son
============

It's not [G]time to make a [D]change,
just re[C]lax, take it [Am7]easy
you're still [G]young, that's your [Em]fault,
there's so [Am]much you have to [D]know
Find a [G]girl, settle [D]down, if you [C]want,
you can [Am7]marry
Look at [G]me, I am [Em]old, but I'm [Am]happy [D]

I was [G]once like you are [D]now,
and I [C]know that's it's not [Am7]easy
to be [G]calm when you've [Em]found
something [Am]going on [D]
But take your [G]time, think a [D]lot, think
of [C]everything you've [Am7]got
for you will [G]still be here to[Em]morrow,
but your [D]dreams may [G]not [C]

How can [G]I try to ex[D]plain,
when I [C]do he turns a[Am7]way again
It's [G]always been the [Em]same,
same old [Am]story. [D]
From the [G]moment I could [D]talk,
I was [C]ordered to [Am7]listen
now there's a [G]way and I [Em]know
that I [D]have to [G]go away.
I [D]know I [C]have to [G]go [C]

It's not [G]time to make a [D]change,
just re[C]lax, take it [Am7]slowly
you're still [G]young, that's your [Em]fault,
there's so [Am]much you have to [D]go through
Find a [G]girl, settle [D]down,
if you [C]want, you can [Am7]marry
Look at [G]me, I am [Em]old, but I'm [Am]happy [D]

All the [G]times that I've [D]tried
keeping [C]all the things I [Am7]knew inside
It's [G]hard but it's [Em]harder to i[Am]gnore it [D]
If they were [G]right, I'd a[D]gree,
but it's [C]them they know not [Am7]me
now there's a [G]way and I [Em]know
that I [D]have to [G]go away. I [D]know I [C]have to [G]go
