Karma

Tom: C#m

         E
It was raining when you came in
                         A
You said, "Sorry, I'm all wet"
          E
I said, "You don't have to be sorry
                            B
I'll help you take care of that"
       E
You lay it all out on the table
                                   A
I said there's no need to make a mess
          E
We try to study, don't get a lot done
                             B
All busy worried about that test


[Chorus]
A
College hall's no place for a study date
B
You couldn't look yourself straight through the mirror
A
Wasn't my fault to egg you on, I couldn't wait
B
I shoulda known you couldn't hold your own liquor
A
It's a surefire, but your daddy wouldn't pay
B
He finds out, I'm going down undercover
A
You know the truth is loving you was not a mistake
B
But that's a lotta bad karma

E   B* A x4

Oh, I wouldn't make a bad father


[Verse 2]
E
Now you're saying you're gonna leave me
                               A
It took a long time to get you thеre
                E
You're still a hot mess in your whitе dress
                          B
I'm busy trying not to stare
        E
Oh, and freedom, oh, freedom
                                  A
Like a heartbeat, could drive you mad
            E
The thunder outside drowning out my visions
                            B
Of what we lost and what we had


[Chorus]
A
College hall's such a cold place to be awake
B
You couldn't look yourself straight through the mirror
A
Wasn't my fault to egg you on, I couldn't wait
B
I shoulda known you couldn't hold your own liquor
A
It's a surefire, but your daddy wouldn't pay
B
He finds out, I'm going down undercover
A
You know the truth is loving you was not a mistake
B
But that's a lotta bad karma

E   B*  A   x4

Oh, I wouldn't make a bad father (Yeah)


[Bridge]
       B                C#m          A
I'm afraid that I'm to blame if you give up, Cassie
B                 C#m
If I ever make it out of my head
A
You can have me
B                      C#m
Maybe I could stick around
                A
Yeah, I could shape up, settle down (Shape up, settle down)
     B                    C#m
But tonight, I'm freaking out
                   Am*
'Cause you won't call


[Outro]
A
Cold shoulder, pulled over on the interstate
B
Double take, saw a little face in the mirror
A
Knew we couldn't tell your mother when I saw your plates
B
Heated seats, but you couldn't speak through the shivers
A
You zip your jacket, try to hide your red letter A
B
Half-mast, scatter ashes in the water
A
You know the truth is you could cut this any other way
B
It's just a lotta bad karma (Hey)

E   B*  A   until the end
E
I wouldn't make a bad father
B
But you won't call, no
A
But you won't
