Fathers Name Is Dad

The Fire


Tom: Dm

G

[Verse 1]
       G               A#
From a kid of four you don't expect
  F            G
A supernatural intellect
G                A#
Me just like the other kids
F                G
Lived a world of building bricks


[Chorus]
G                                              F  Em  Dm  Em
My father's name was Dad, My mother's name was Mum
G                                          F  Em  Dm  Em
How can I take the blame for anything I've done?
G


[Verse 2]
G              A#
So now it's my present age
      F               G
Which people call the awkward stage
G               A#
Why should everything be made
   F                G
To look like insane escapades?


[Chorus]
G                                              F  Em  Dm  Em
My father's name was Dad, My mother's name was Mum
G                                          F  Em  Dm  Em
How can I take the blame for anything I've done?
E


[Bridge]
E          A             D
   See the hollows of my eyes
E           A             D
  Make my career of empty skies… I'll laugh at it all


[Instrumental]
G       F  A#  G


[Verse 3]
G              A#
So now it's my present age
      F               G
Which people call the awkward stage
G               A#
Why should everything be made
   F                G
To look like insane escapades?


[Outro]
G                                              F  Em  Dm  Em
My father's name was Dad, My mother's name was Mum
G                                          F  Em  Dm  Em
How can I take the blame for anything I've done?
G       F  A#  G   x2
