5 months ago
Tone: [E]
Verse 1:
[E] I forget how the West was won
[B] I forget if this was ever fun
[Dbm] I just learned these people only [A]raise you to cage you
[E] Sarahs and Hannahs in their
Sunday best [E]
[B] Clutching their pearls, sighing "what a mess"
[Dbm] I just learned these people try and [A]save you 'cause they hate you
 
Pre-Chorus:
[E]Too high a [A]horse for a simple [E]girl to rise a[B]above it
[E]They slammed the [A]door on my whole [E]world
The one thing I [B]wanted
 
Chorus:
And [E]I'm running with my dress unbuttoned
[A] Screaming, "But Daddy, I love him
[B]I'm having his baby
No I'm [A]not but you should see your faces"
[E]I'm telling him to floor it through the fences
[A] No, I'm not coming to my senses
[B]I know he's crazy, but he's the [A]one I want
 
Verse 2:
[E] Dutiful daughter, all my plans were laid
[B] Tendrils tucked into a woven braid
[Dbm] Growing up precocious sometimes means
[A] Not growing up at all
[E] He was chaos, he was revelry
[B] Bedroom eyes like a remedy
[Dbm] Soon enough, the elders had convened[A]convened down at the city hall
 
Pre-Chorus:
[E] "Stay away from [A]her," the sabo[E]saboteurs protested [B]too much
[E] Lord knows the [A]words we never [E]heard
Just screeching tires and [B]true love
 
Chorus:
And [E]I'm running with my dress unbuttoned
[A] Screaming, "But Daddy, I love him
[B]I'm having his baby
No I'm [A]not but you should see your faces"
[E]I'm telling him to floor it through the fences
[A] No, I'm not coming to my senses
[B]I know he's crazy, but he's the [A]one I want
 
Bridge:
[E] I'll tell you something [B]right now
I'd rather burn my whole [Dbm]life down
Than listen to one more [A]second of all this xxxxxing and moaning
[E]I'll tell you something about my [B]good name
It's mine alone to [Dbm]disgrace
I don't care to all these [A]vipers dressed in emperor's clothing
[Dbm]God save the most judge[A]judgemental creeps
Who say they want what's [B]best for me
Sanctimoniously performing soliloquies I'll never [Dbm]see
Thinking it can [A]change the beat
Of my heart when he [B]touches me and counteract the chemistry
And undo the [E]destin[B]destiny
You ain't gotta [Dbm]pray for me
He's my [A]wild boy and I'm his wild joy
[E] [B] If all you want is [Dbm]grey for me
Then it's just [A]white noise, this is my choice
 
Pre-Chorus:
[E] There's a lot of people in town that I
[B] Bestow upon my fakest smiles
[Dbm] Scandal does funny things to pry but brings [A]lovers closer
[E] We came back when the heat died down
[B] Went to my parents and they came around
[Dbm] All the wine moms are still holding out
But [A]xxxx 'em, it's over
 
Chorus:
And [E]I'm dancing in my dress in the sun
[A] And even my daddy just loves him
[B]I'm his lady
And [A]oh my god you should see your faces
[E]Time, doesn't it give some perspective?
[A] I know you can't come to the wedding
[B]I know he's crazy, but he's the [A]one I want
 
Outro:
[E] I'll tell you something [B]right now
You ain't gotta [Dbm]pray for me
He's my [A]wild boy, and I'm his wild joy
-[E]-He was chaos, he was revelr[B]revelry-
If all you want is [Dbm]grey for me
Thatt's just [A]white noise, it's my choice
[E] [B] Screaming, "But Daddy, I love h[Dbm]him
I'm having his [A]baby
No I'm [E]not but [B]you should see your [Dbm]faces"
But [A]oh my god you should see your faces
 
Outro:
[E] [B] [Dbm] [A]
