[Father]
 
          G                  D
It's not     time to make a    change,
           C                  Am7
just re -    lax and take it       easy
              G                     Em
You're still     young that's your     fault,
            Am                    D
there's so      much you have to     know
 
        G                D
Find a     girl, settle    down, 
        C                    Am7
if you     want to, you can       marry
         G            Em                Am          D
Look at     me, I am      old, but I'm      happy 
 
       G                     Bm7
I was     once like you are      now,
       C                      Am7
and I     know that it´s not       easy
       G                     Em
to be     calm, when you´ve     found
                 Am     D
something going     on. 
 
               G                 Bm7
But take your     time, think a       lot,
          C                   Am7
think of    everything you've       got
              G                     Em
For you will     still be here to -      morrow,
          D              G
but your     dreams may      not

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

[Father]
 
          G                  D
It's not     time to make a     change,
          C                    Am7
just sit     down and take it       slowly
              G                      Em
You're still     young, that's your      fault,
            Am                       D
there's so      much you have to go     through
        G                D
Find a     girl, settle     down,
        C                    Am7
if you     want to, you can       marry
         G            Em                Am        D

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