Verse:
Gm                           Cm
Tell me is your father a good man?
     D              Gm                  Cm
It's surprising how little, he seems to understand
    D               Gm
His daughter was my savior
      Cm           D          Gm
Sure, she can be a little indecisive
    Cm              D
But I don't have to make her choose 'cause

Chorus:
Gm
This is how it goes
Cm          D
Watching it unfold -Watching it unfold-
Gm
Playing my own role -Runaway on 'em-
Cm                D
Dum-dum-ditty-dum-dum-ditty, daddy, don't
Gm
Make me leave this home
Cm               D
This is what you chose -This is what you chose-
Gm
I can't let him go -Runaway on 'em-
Cm                D
Dum-dum-ditty-dum-dum-ditty, daddy, don't—

In our house the quiet is so loud

I'll never hear a single word, you wanna shout -Oh-

And I just want to live
