[Verse 1]
C G C G
And now that you know why I'm leavin'
F C/E Am G
And your mum's yelling out that she hopes I don't come back
C G C G F C/E Am G
Of course she would say that

[Verse 2]
C G C G
Don't forget what I told you about your demons
F C/E Am G
They're just thoughts in your head while you sleep, no more than that
C G C G F C/E Am G
Now fetch my duffle bag

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Em Am
If my ride ain't here, then it's coming
F C/E Am G
I can feel it not so far away
Em Am
And I know you're angry, young'n
F C F C
Dry your eyes up
F C
Or you won't see
F C F G
Big dog walkin-g away

[Chorus]

Now if you think I'm chasing the seasons

Like a van is some place to be
Am G
I'm your stepdad

[Próxima Parte]
F C/E
And I know they say I'm scheming of leaving
G Am G
Dreaming my life away
F C/E
But if you see my name in the headlines
G Am G
And they're all pissing on me, I'm your stepdad
F C/E
And I know they say I'm frail and broken
G Am G
But you can't treat your mom that way

I'll tell you how I got to Memphis
F C/E Am G
Saw your mum on a TV show and that was that
C G C G F C/E Am G
Both my bags were packed

[Verse 4]
C G C G
I could put you to sleep just by reading
F C/E Am G
Turn the living room into an avalanche
C G C G F C/E Am G
I loved to make you laugh

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Em Am
If the paps ain't here, then they're comin'
F C/E Am G
I can hear their flashes blast away
Em Am
And I know you're tired, young'n

Time to wise up

Or you won't see
F C F G
What your dad does for pay

[Chorus]
