Em
i forget how the west was won..
C
i forget if this was ever fun..
G
i just learned these people
D
only raise you to cage you
Em
sarahs and hannahs in their sunday best
C
clutching their pearls, sighing, "what a mess"
G D
i just learned these people try and save you
cause they hate you
Em C
too high a horse..
G D
for a simple girl to rise above it..
Em C
they slammed the door..
G D
on my whole world.. the one thing i wanted..
Chorus
G
now i'm running with my dress unbuttoned
C
screaming, "but daddy, i love him!
D
i'm having his baby"
C
no, i'm not, but you should see your faces
G
i'm telling him to floor it through the fences
C
no, i'm not coming to my senses
D C
i know he's crazy but he's the one i want..
Em
dutiful daughter, all my plans were laid..
C
tendrils tucked into a woven braid..
G D
growing up precocious sometimes means..
not growing up at all..
Em
he was chaos, he was revelry..
C
bedroom eyes like a remedy..
G D
soon enough the elders had convened..
down at the city hall..
Em C
"stay away from her.."
G D
the saboteurs.. protested too much..
Em C G
Lord knows the words.. we never heard..
D
just screeching tires and true love..
Chorus
G
and i'm running with my dress unbuttoned
C
screaming, "but daddy, i love him!
D
i'm having his baby"
C
no, i'm not, but you should see your faces
G
i'm telling him to floor it through the fences
C
no, i'm not coming to my senses
D C
i know he's crazy but he's the one i want..
G C
i'll tell you something right now
D
i'd rather burn my whole life down
C
than listen to one more second
of all this bitching and moaning
G C
i'll tell you something about my good name
D
it's mine alone to disgrace
C
i don't cater to all these vipers
dressed in empath's clothing..
Em C
God save the most judgmental creeps
D
who say they want what's best for me
D
sanctimoniously performing soliloquies
Em
i'll never see
C
thinking it can change the beat
D
of my heart when he touches me
D
and counteract the chemistry
G D
and undo the destiny..
C
you ain't gotta pray for me..
Em D
me and my wild boy and all this wild joy..
G D C
if all you want is gray for me..
Em
then it's just white noise..
D
and it's just my choice..
Em
there's a lot of people in town that i..
C
bestow upon my fakest smiles..
G
scandal does funny things to pride
D
but brings lovers closer..
Em
we came back when the heat died down..
C
went to my parents and they came around..
G
all the wine moms are still holding out..
D
but fuck 'em, it's over..
Chorus
G
now i'm dancing in my dress in the sun and
C
even my daddy just loves him
D
i'm his lady
C
and oh my God, you should see your faces
G
time, doesn't it give some perspective?
C
and no, you can't come to the wedding
D C
i know he's crazy, but he's the one i want..
G C
i'll tell you something right now
D
you ain't gotta pray for me..
C
me and my wild boy and all of this wild joy..
G
(he was chaos, he was revelry)
C D
if all you want is gray for me..
C
then it's just white noise.. and it's my choice..
G C
screaming, "but daddy, i love him..!
D C
i'm having his baby.."
G C
no, i'm not.. but you
D
should see your faces..
C
but oh my God, you should see your faces..
