[Verse 1]
Bm Gmaj7 My father sits at night with no lights on Bm G His cigarette glows in the dark Dm7 The living room is still Cmaj7 Am7 Ab G I walk by, no remark Bm Gmaj7 I tiptoe past the master bedroom where Bm G My mother reads her magazines Dm7 I hear her call sweet dreams Cmaj7 Am Ab G But I forgot how to dream
[Chorus]
F Em But you say it's time we moved in together Dm7 Cmaj7 And raised a family of our own, you and me F Em Well, that's the way I've always heard it should be A You want to marry me D We'll marry
[Verse 2]
Bm Gmaj7 My friends from college, they're all married now Bm G They have their houses and their lawns Dm7 They have their silent noons Cmaj7 Am Ab G Tearful nights, angry dawns Bm Gmaj7 Their children hate them for the things they're not Bm G They hate themselves for what they are Dm7 And yet they drink, they laugh Cmaj7 Am7 Ab G Close the wound, hide the scar
[Chorus]
F Em But you say it's time we moved in together Dm7 Cmaj7 And raised a family of our own, you and me F Em Well, that's the way I've always heard it should be A You want to marry me D We'll marry
[Verse 3]
Bm Gmaj7 You say we that can keep our love alive Bm G Babe, all I know is what I see Dm7 The couples cling and claw Cmaj7 Am Ab G And drown in love's debris Bm Gmaj7 You say we'll soar like two birds through the clouds Bm G But soon you'll cage me on your shelf Dm7 I'll never learn to be Cmaj7 Am7 Ab G Just me first, by myself
[Chorus]
F Em Well, okay, it's time we moved in together Dm7 Cmaj7 And raised a family of our own, you and me F Em Well, that's the way I've always heard it should be A You want to marry me D We'll marry
