[Verse 1]
Em G A Bm Our dad would send us to our room Em G He'd be the voice of doom A Bm He said that we would thank him later Em G A Bm All day, he was solid as a rock Em G But by eight o'clock A G/B We'd be crumbling Em G Aadd4 Bm One night, my brother Joe and me Em G Climbed down the family tree Aadd4 Bm That grew outside our bedroom window Em G Aadd4 Bm We ran, though we knew it couldn't last Em G Running from the past Aadd4 Bm D From things that we were born to be
[Chorus]
A Bm Looking back, it's so bizarre F#5 G5 A5 It runs in the family C A5 D All the things we are A Bm On the back seat of the car F#5 G5 A5 With Jo - seph and Emily C A5 Bm7 We only see so far E E/G# D And we all have our daddy's eyes A Bm Looking back, it's so bizarre

Em G Aadd4 Bm Dad rang the officer in charge Em G A man so large Aadd4 Bm He barely fit his circumstances Em G Aadd4 Bm He said two kids out on the street Em G Were picked up on the beat Aadd4 Bm And in the station Em G Aadd4 Bm So there's me, with Emily and Joe Em G Daddy driving home Aadd4 Bm All heading in the same direction Em G Aadd4 Bm He knew, no matter what the breaks Em G We'd make the same mistakes Aadd4 Bm D Couldn't take his eyes of Joe and me
