Father´s Day

(capo 3ª casa)

(intro) Em G D A

D                 A               
When I was sixteen I cut myself a 
Bm
Mohawk,
       G                         D
Because I wanted to walk the walk,
       A                  Bm
And not just talk the talk,
          G                   
But it was a bit of a disaster 
         D
because
              A             
I did the sides with kitchen 
   Bm
scissors,
         G                  D
Because I didn't have any clippers,
     A                    
And I didn't want to use a 
 Bm
beard-trimmer -
  G
I'd made that mistake before.

Em           G                    
When you got home you didn't want 
D                      A
to talk about what I'd done.
             Em               
You said I'd let you down, I'd 
    G                      D 
fucked around, when I was only 
         A
having fun.
         Em                  
With the way that you've been 
G                      D         
lately, you've no right to scream
      A
 and shout.
        Em          G             
You and I, we've got a lot that we
            A
 need to talk about.

(refrão)
D                          A     
What's the point in making vows 
                         Bm
that you're never going to keep?

                       G           
A lifetime lying awake means you'll
                   D
 never get to sleep.
                         A         
And all the promises you made, that
                   Bm
 were painful and untrue,
                  G
Of all the things you do they 
reflect worst on you.

(intro)  Em G D A

D      A            Bm
We all have our own devices
    G                  D
For handling mid-life crises
       A                Bm
Usually involves a motorbike and
     G                   D
Suspicious fashion decisions.
        A                   Bm
But you choose to stave off grey 
hairs by
G               D
Lamely hacking at the sides
     A                Bm
With lies and flimsy alibis
    G
For your suspicious expeditions.

You always told me Father's Day 
                G
was just another way
         D
Of selling Hallmark greeting cards
F#m                    Bm        
Twenty Years of waking sleep, of 
                   G
lying through your teeth,
                   D          
Meant every Father's Day spent 
            A              G
wondering who the hell you are.

Em          G                 D 
What's the point in us making 
              A              Em
vows that we're never going to keep?
      G                 D         
I keep trying to keep you up, but 
    A                 Em
you keep on falling asleep.
       G                 D      
And all the promises we made were 
   A             Em
painful and untrue,
       G              D          
But for better or for worse, I am
A            Em
 turning into you.
