Thumbs

[Primera Parte]

G                Em
You hung up the phone
      D                   C
And I asked you what was wrong
             Em            D
Your dad has come to town
               C
He'd like to meet
        G                    C
I said, "You don't have to see him"
    Em                            
But for whatever reason you can't 
C
tell him no

[Segunda Parte]

      G             Em
So we meet him at a bar
          D              C
You were holding my hand hard
           G
He ordered rum and coke
               D            C
I can't drink either anymore
           G                  D
He hadn't seen you since the fifth 
grade
            Em                
Now you're nineteen and you're 
 C
five-eight
         Em
He said "Honey, you sure look great
        D                          
Do you get the checks I send on 
       C
your birthday?"

Quick and easy
       Am              G
Your nails are digging
         D
Into my knee
        Em
I don't know
    D           C
How you keep smiling

             G
I lovе your eyes
      Em
And he has thеm
            G
Or you have his
       D     C
'Cause he was first
  G          C           Em
I imagine my thumbs on the irises
         D            C
Pressing in until they burst

[Cuarta Parte]

           G
I clear my throat
     Em              D
And say we ought to get home
   C           G
He offers us a ride
  Em                 D         C
I reply "No, that's alright"
              Em
And when we leave
              C
You feel him watching
      G           D          
So we walk a mile in the wrong 
    C
direction

[Estribillo]

        Am
I would kill him
        D
If you let me
        Am
I would kill him
           D
Quick and easy
             Am        G
Your nails are digging
      D
Into my knee
        Em
I don't know
       D        C
How you keep smiling
        Em
I don't know
      D        C
How you keep smiling
        Em
I don't know
     D         C
How you keep smiling

[Final]

        D                         
I wanna take your face between my 
C
hands and say
G              Em           D   
"You two are connected by a pure
       C
 coincidence
G                Em             
Bound to him by blood, but baby,
D               C
 it's all relative
G                  Em         D 
You've been in his fist ever 
                 C
since you were a kid
G                     Em          
But you don't owe him shit even if
D           C
 he said you did
G                 Em         D  
You don't owe him shit even if 
          C
he said you did"
