[Verse]
C                                                       
I ain't complainin'
 F       C                                               
But I'm tired, so I'm just sayin'
         F                                                        
What I think
    F                                                  
And if we're being honest
      G                          C       F  C               
Then honestly I think I need a drink
                                                       

[Verse]
    C                                                   
My baby's growin' up
      F           C                                          
She thinks she's fallin' all in love
            F                                           
And that I hate her
    F                                    G               
At seventeen, she's just like me when I was seventeen
             C                                           
So I don't blame her

Am                                                       
Do do do do
Am

             G                                          
What are we gonna do about it?

   C                                                    
Remember when we use to be
Am                                                       
Everything they ever need
 F                             G                         
We had them believing we were cool
      C                                                 
It's like it happened over night
      Am                                                 
We're always wrong, they're always right
   F                                 G                   
We use to be the one's breakin' the rules
                F                   G                  
Now we're just mothers, we're just fathers of
         C

 F          C                                  F         
But she's sweet when she wants money and her freedom
       F                                                
Oh my god, she's got a car
             G                                          
Swears they won't go far
                 C
