Father

	G	D	C	Am7
It's not	time to make a	change, just re	lax, take it	easy

	G	Em	Am	D
you're still	young, that's your	fault, there's so	much you have to	know

	G	D	C	Am7
Find a	girl, settle	down, if you	want, you can	marry

	G	Em	Am	D
Look at	me, I am	old, but I'm	happy

	G	Bm7	C	Am7
I was	once like you are	now, and I	know that's it's not	easy

	G	Em	Am	D
to be	calm when you've	found something	going on

	G	Bm7	C	Am7
But take your	time, think a	lot, think of	everything you've	got

	G	Em	D	G	C
for you will	still be here to	morrow, but your	dreams may	not

Son

	G	Bm	C	Am7
How can	I try to ex	plain, when I	do he turns a	way again

	G	Em	Am	D
It's	always been the	same, same old	story.

	G	Bm	C	Am7
From the	moment I could	talk, I was	ordered to	listen

	G	Em	D	G	D	C	G	C
now there's a	way and I	know that I	have to	go away. I	know I	have to	go

Father

	G	D	C	Am7
It's not	time to make a	change, just re	lax, take it	slowly

	G	Em	Am	D
you're still	young, that's your	fault, there's so	much you have to	go through

	G	D	C	Am7
Find a	girl, settle	down, if you	want, you can	marry

	G	Em	Am	D
Look at	me, I am	old, but I'm	happy

Son

	G	Bm	C	Am7
All the	times that I've	tried keeping	all the things I	knew inside

	G	Em	Am	D
It's	hard but it's	harder to i	gnore it

	G	Bm7	C	Am7
If they were	right, I'd a	gree, but it's	them they know not	me

	G	Em	D	G	D	C	G
now there's a	way and I	know that I	have to	go away. I	know I	have to	go
